Kyle - I don't really remember asking for your opinion, nor yelling, so I wouldn't categorize my commentary as "outrage".  Merely expressing my thought that it doesn't matter when the resource gives out; if we don't have an appreciation for it, no matter if it's a reservoir, an aquifer, an aqueduct, irrigation ditch for farming, what have you - it just doesn't seem to be a teachable moment I guess.  Relax, mister.
