Dumping the water was stupid, but quieted “public concerns”. It turned out the kid actually peed on the wall, and not into the reservoir too boot.
Just watched an hour of Faux News however, and every story they did was “be afraid, be very afraid”, of EVERYTHING! It IS the “conservative” media outlets constantly raising fears, whether in Syria, on ferries, Ukraine, Xl, water supplies, or anything else, yet dropping more bombs on someone, excuse or not, is “calming”?? Well to industry and the MIC in particular I guess.

The reservoir in my hometown was drained after a worker fell overboard from a dinghy and drowned. This, of course, was in a desert area of California. Since then, the water purveyors have installed large underground tanks where the once giant “swimming pool” no one was allowed to swim in used to be. .The reservoir once was a lovely sight to see when driving by. Now, just another field..Good news everyone, the tanks hold more water.
