Subject: RE: BS: water doesnt just fall out of the sky From: Steve Shaw Date: 22 Oct 14 - 08:01 PM More than half of the water on Earth came from volcanoes or hot springs. I know this because a geyser down the pub told me. |

Subject: RE: BS: water doesnt just fall out of the sky From: GUEST,# Date: 23 Oct 14 - 11:36 AM Hi, Steve. Have a good day. |
Subject: RE: BS: water doesnt just fall out of the sky From: GUEST,Rahere Date: 23 Oct 14 - 12:09 PM Used to be at Uni near Burton. I am a quarter Belgian and had my first Stella aged 5. OK, it's not the best, unless they run Jupiller up from down the road to fill a production gap, which sometimes happens, making just a tad better. Anyway, there was I back in 78 with my tastebuds set for something decent, the day it was launched in the UK. A mouthful of something decent awaited, Burton delivered! Whoever pulled that one, I have his own variation on St Lawrence's punishment in hell, being roasted forever in the hop-house. Burton don't brew, they simply rebottle direct, I swear! My revenge was to get to know one of their main board directors... |

It doesn't just fall out of the sky." The senator's pronouncement was a bit precipitate. |
Subject: RE: BS: water doesnt just fall out of the sky From: Steve Shaw Date: 24 Oct 14 - 11:49 AM It doesn't wash with me either. Still, water under the bridge and all that... |

Subject: RE: BS: water doesnt just fall out of the sky From: GUEST,Rahere Date: 24 Oct 14 - 02:43 PM What frustrates me is the same people who charge you for it charge you again for getting it back, and charge for what does come out of the sky.... |
Subject: RE: BS: water doesnt just fall out of the sky From: Penny S. Date: 24 Oct 14 - 02:58 PM They charge me for the same amount that comes in as going out - but I use some of it on the garden. They charged my brother-in-law for removing rain that ran off his company roof despite the fact that it ran straight into the nearby river. |
Subject: RE: BS: water doesnt just fall out of the sky From: Stilly River Sage Date: 24 Oct 14 - 03:08 PM In Colorado the law changed recently - it used to be illegal to catch rainwater. I'm not sure that all bans were lifted, but I think the restrictions eased a bit. SRS |
