The logic free and scientifically ignorant humanoids who make up the bulk of California's population have their knickers in a bunch again -- this time over what they refer to as "another possible drought year."
It apparently is irrelevant to them that the period during which we have been keeping records is insignificant insofar as natural history is concerned. The inconvenient and unfortunate fact is that a great deal of scientific evidence indicates California has had far more than normal rain during this now possibly ending period.
If this is the case, the state may just be returning to the semi-desert condition that actually is its long term norm -- one in which it lacks the amount of water necessary to sustain its current the levels of population, agriculture, and industrial activities. These levels have been achieved (and reached the outer limits of the available water resources) during what appears to have been an abnormally abundant rainfall era.
Look out: the fruits and nuts soon may be fleeing to your neighborhood.
