I'm not sure MattSd knows what Socialism means, however, I agree that we need to re-visit the protection of the delta smelt. We are in a water emergency.
Nevertheless, even with the delta water, we need to conserve and find other water sources. We need to recycle our water because sending water out to sea is ridiculous; especially considering that the "clean" drinking water we're using to flush our toilets is recycled Las Vegas water. We need to water smarter, less, and preferably with grey water where possible.
As soon as someone comes out with an economical and attractive surface that will stand up to kids and pets, I'll rip out my thirsty lawn (backyard only). Until then... I water.
