I hate to interrupt all this theological debate (yeah, right!) with a water
saving tip, but this has given me great success, so....
At any hardware store, you can buy a roll of pipe thread tape for about
$0.89. This stuff is used on washing machine connections so that your
hoses aren't constantly dripping. Well, it works great on garden hoses,
too! And instead of being sprayed by high-pressure leaks every time you
turn the hose on or off, you get barely a drip, and we save aquifer water
for future generations. Or at least until next year.
