If they only knew how many bugs, in each sq M of soil, the water from rain passes through.
Then again the vote was from our intellectually challenged brothers in the Deep North. I remember some of the crazy arguments they made against Daylight Saving. The funniest was a woman who rang into a radio station very concerned and worried. She was upset that with daylight saving her husband would now get his Morning Erection on the bus !
(I kid you not)
Your situation in Adelaide must be dire,(as it is in my local area) seeing every other State gets to take what water they want from the Murry-Darling first. Is that why you can eat your beer?
I would still like to see cheap, passive solar desalination systems explored here. Perhaps then we could top up the MD rivers in Queenland for you?!
(Someone from the Eyre peninsular got $60,000 or so from the Fedral government a few years ago to
market a solar desalinator. Have you heard anything about it?)
