hey, electro robot, i'm trying real hard to figure you out. what do you even mean by "urban hippies are stealing my water"? that doesn't make any sense on many levels. in order for someone to "steal" your water, it has to be yours in the first place. additionally, if you're really speaking of urban hippies you need to consider that they'll probably use a rain barrel if they are in a water-sensitive area.
i'd have to say that the lawns of Arizona, Nevada and Atlanta have diverted more water from fruitful uses than you will ever be able to blame "hippies" on. i'll even give the golf courses a pass and say their water use is justified. that still leaves us with countless decorative lawns maintained solely so that some yahoo in the desert can be proud of how good his immigrant-labor maintained lawn looks.
