That's why the liberals out west want severe gun control, so when they move back east cranking up land values silly high, they wont get shot. ;-)

If I lived in CA right now, I would get going while the going is good, and sell my house to some poor sap before it really looses value and move back East.

What I have a hard time believing is that grass lawns are even allowed. Let alone allowed to be watered when things are looking so dire.

The one saving grace may be technological advances in desalination like something recent I read using carbon nano-based reverse osmosis which was highly efficient at desalinating water if the kinks can be worked out. A discovery like that would be Earth-shattering.
