Interesting post, thank you!

Well if your anywhere near the Cherry Blossom parade Sunday stop and wave at Beau as he'll be in his Wookiee marching with SWGA/501st/Rebel Legion. I'm missing out thanks to studying for my PE exam.

As for water here in the greater Atlanta area, yeah it sucks and my yard is going to be looking most horrible this year thanks to it-them's the breaks.

Global warming is still BS, and that's my stand there

Not that this is the problem there, because it's one thing to landscape where there is habitually enough rain to go around, but I hate hearing about people in desert climates who can't water their lawns anymore. I hate visiting, say, Tuscon and seeing grass at the mall. Why is there grass? There should be no grass!

I heard that story too. And even living in Seattle, I'm trying to do my part. I just bought and installed two rain barrels, so I can save at least a little water for the dry season.
