Got an email note from the Santa Clara Valley Water District this week. Didn’t have a clue that it was “Groundwater Awareness Week.” But, hey, there’s a week for everything and the “press release people” have a magnificent dream that the press will turn into “sheeple” and write stories on the “topic of the week” every time they send out a “Baaaa release.” Here’s what I know.

No offense DK, but there’s not a single farmer on the board and there are plenty of politicians.
