I remember reading California gets most of it anyway and that a bumper snow season in The Rockies won't necessarily help us.

We live off the Colorado. Everyone who lives off the Colorado profits from big snow packs in the Rockies. There are no exceptions. And every bumper snow crop in the Rockies helps LV and all the others who draw off the Colorado.

The majority of the water from the Colorado goes to CA agriculture. That may change one day but it is today's reality. But we still get our water from what is left after the CA agriculture.

With 115 days without rain, and the 115 days of oil build up on the roads, I'm glad my car went kaput (alternator went out) and had it towed to Dolar's Automotive early Monday morning after work, and took the bus home. Don't we all know the dangers of driving on our roadways here after any amount of rain!!! Anyone know how many accidents during that period, given there's 30-50 accidents in the Valley even on a dry day?

People were driving way too slow, like waaay under the speed limit causing backups all over town. You would think we were driving in a blizzard, whiteout or torrential rain conditions etc.

Ah, some nice aluminum-poisoned chemtrail rain. Right in the middle of a mountain-locked desert. What are the odds? Gimme some more. Don't act like you don't see all the white scribble-scrabble by these planes. If nature created cloud cover that looked like fiberglass insulation I'd say nature was screwed in the head.

Like any good, sun drenched desert dweller, I enjoy a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy, but this comes up so often, I'm almost afraid to rain on the parade (pun intended) here in Las Vegas. Las Vegas is right under a very busy intersection in the sky for lots of airplanes going northwest/south east (think San Francisco to Phoenix and the like) as well as northeast/southwest (think L.A. to Denver) So when the atmospheric conditions at 33,000 feet and above are right, we get some very neat contrail patterns that seem very geometric. Those are great days to float in the pool and look at the sky...

We moved here from Des Moines, Iowa. I'll post a map of the US if no one knows where that is. Because of the location we would rarely see less than 10 contrails any time we looked at the sky. We even turned it into a game.

Over there it was fertilizer in the chemtrails. That's why Iowa can grow so much corn.
