GREAT LAKES drought warning ignored by politicians as families told to "conserve" while city hall sprinklers run all night
As someone who believes in common sense, it's infuriating to see the so-called experts panic about low water levels in the Great Lakes while our local officials hose down petunias at 2 a.m. My neighbor's well went dry last week, and the city's response was a pamphlet on low-flow showerheads. We're not stupid—we know where the real waste is.
