CNN had a feature on Lake Lanier this morning. Apparently water
levels are
way, way down, and if there isn't some serious protracted rain
soon,
a goodly portion of Georgia will be facing drought.


Meanwhile, the video showed the shorelines of the lake line with
dead
shellfish and fish, left behind as the water receded.


What's the impact on boating?


Good thing Waylon doesn't boat much. Shouldn't affect him.


Is Lanier a man made lake?


Yes, it's dammed. It's big, though, 900 miles of shoreline, at least
when it was full, it's down about 12' now. The good thing is it's
deep.


It is not deep if 12' decrease puts it in the condition it is in. Deep
in
California is like Oroville. Down 200' and still parts of the lake are
400'
deep.- Hide quoted text -

Deep is a relative term, dip****.


Relative to you deep****.- Hide quoted text -

Okay, I'll give you an out, Mr. Brilliant. If "deep" is NOT a relative
term, then how much IS "deep"?


While you were gone, it wasn't totally peaceful around here, but it wasn't
too bad. Someone thought you may have been ill. It appears you weren't.


But, would you consider going back to wherever you were, even if it was

Why the insults, John, I thought you were working toward group
harmony? Why is it that you do as you want, but if someone else does
exactly the same thing, you whine like a baby?


Actually, the group was in a state of relative harmony before the return of
your illustrious self.- Hide quoted text -

Why dodge the questions, John?

Uh, there was more than one question, John. In case you're having
trouble, but appear to be willing to answer, I'll break the paragraph
down for you, okay?
The first question was, "why the insults"?
Second question was, "why is it that you do what you want, but when
someone else does exactly the same thing, you whine like a little
baby"?
