		hugh on Feb 17, 2008 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Bottled water 'is immoral' On the other hand, I did think it was pretty silly the other day when I saw water from New Zealand for sale here in California. Loading water onto a ship to ship it across more water to sell in a place which already has plenty of water seems pretty wasteful. But I said "silly", not "immoral".

Gee, I thought we were talking about California, for a second.
