That's why I avoid them in winter and wash by hand when I'm able. I don't want road salt solution pressure sprayed into every crevice on my vehicles. Damn, I never thought of that, but I don't have to worry. I wash my car once every couple of years, whether it needs it or not. Hey, that's what the rain if for. ;-) |

Ok, I have only been watching what I see on the news but is the corps still blowing water out the dams for no apparant reason (as they have suggested in some reports)? Yes, they are. And as this lake gets smaller, and the story and visuals get bigger, does it serve to help the Global taxing crowd prove their points? Jeez, talking about black helicopters! Do you think that liberals somehow conjured up the drought to be able to prove that global warming exists? Who exactly is this "Global taxing crowd" you speak of? |

What I really meant is from what I know and have seen, (I have lived down there too) the corps never seem to have any accountability, just do what they see fit, kinda' like the FED. And I did not mean the corps had golbal taxing in mind but I am wondering if the corps actions will give the GT crowd more ammo, and if so if it would be a legit arguement... |

There is a court ordered amount of water that they must release, and that is just what they will do, unless we can stop them somehow, until the last drop flows out. I'm wondering, because they are unable to use ANY judgement of their own accord, what they'll do to keep water flowing out of the dam after the lake has dried up! |

Where did I say they were doing anything *but* "following the law", dummy? What I DID say was that they aren't allowed to use any judgement of their own accord. I've dealt with the Corp on several projects in the past, and never will again, because of that. |

One is some fresh water mussel in FL. And no, it wasn't some "green group". There are downstream generating plants, downstream places that use the water for drinking, etc. |
