Hey, Bob -
I'm just now catching up.
And I kinda don't like the phrase 'barren desert'. We who live in it - by choice - already have enough of a problem with heavy metals from the Marine Logistics base and the Sheriff's Department busting meth kitchens and dumping all kinds of crap into our groundwater.
When I bought my piece of dirt out here, in '88, my water table was at 12'. Now, to get to potable water, we have to drill down to almost 600', to a whole other aquifer.
