    500 fucking miles away,

    I’m actually surprised how few people point this out. I’ve literally seen people saying “all” the hydrants were dry because they wanted to save some fish. As if somehow the water needed (probably well north of millions of gallons) could magically be transported those 500 fucking miles.

      And not to confuse the issue, because again, the Klamath River is not close enough to matter, but dams contribute to drought conditions.
