Here is the definitive response, Ludwig. The scale of the underutilisation of water, and the scale of the waste of water, and the scale of the potential for multiple use of water, and the scale of the misallocation of water, are all of two or three orders of magnitude greater than the scale of our actual population, the scale of the change in that population, and the distribution of that population. But you have continually argued that any attempt at improving the former must be abandoned because of your irrational fear of the consequences of the latter.

You are just a no-where man, making all your no-where plans for nobody.
