We're being asked to ration water, 'cause there's a danger the water plant will burn down

[XemaSab]

:crazy:

1. Water is highly combustible, XemaSab. I thought you knew that.

[XemaSab]

3. I'll give you a dollar

if you go post that in E/E, and claim that a guy down the street from you made a car in his garage that runs on water. :P

2. Fire at the water factory! Wait...what?

Stop the train, please, I'd like to get off.

4. Fill your bathtub NOW!!!!

Also fill every container in the house! You may lose "potable" water due to the fires. It WOULD NOT BE WRONG to stock up while you can. There isn't a "shortage" now, there will be when the water plant is a shell of a building. I don't know HOW rationing water is going to stop the plant from burning down.

[XemaSab]

6. I think we're supposed to ration it

'Cause once the plant burns down, there won't be any more going into the water towers. :o

8. So you won't be completely cut off?

I was thinking it was coming directly from the water plant. Yes, everyone should use the minimum then. I am not familiar with municiple water supply, I was thinking "If my well went out I would be screwed" equating your water plant to my well.

[XemaSab]

12. I think it goes from the plant to the tanks

which are sort of like water towers.

So if the tanks run out, we're in trouble. :P

5. OK - my head just exploded.

[Fleshdancer]

7. sounds steamy

It's a shame. Everyone will have clean pores but they'll be too dehydrated to care.

9. Where ARE you?

Fill containers, BTW. To be safe. And don't forget, barring your having the tankless variety, your hot water heater is basically a tank full of potable H2O.

[XemaSab]

13. The toilet tank, too

Yum. :9

[NJmaverick]

10. Sounds pretty bad out there

good luck and hang in there

[XemaSab]

14. Will do.

:D

[Elidor]

11. If only there was something they could put the fire out with

Something wet...I dunno

16. I think we can end our search for the perfect oxymoron. n/t

17. I like "Greater Pewee," personally
