Re: Water update

Don,

 

It's not the tourists that concern me.  It's the people who go there on a regular basis and fill fairly large (300-500 gallon) water tanks in the back of their pickups.  I can't speak for whether they "donate" like most RV dumpers do.  I'm also not worried about the cost so much as the unrestricted use of the water by those not living within city limits.

 

You may think it silly, but if the parts don't make it back on schedule and the citizens of Moscow are forced to ration their water even further, you may also show concern.

 

 

Understanding absurdity,

Let's try to figure out how we can charge 
tourists for the
air they breathe while driving through Moscow.

During 
the late summer, of course, we might offer a reduced
rate when there's a lot 
of dust/smoke in the air.

Yes, I think the initial concern was silly, 
because only
pennies per day were involved. Well, maybe dimes. Try 
this:
All the water loaded into all the RVs at the park in one day
would 
be less than would be applied to one Moscow lawn, even
if the lawn-owner 
abided by the present
water-only-every-other-night restriction.
