ONE Good Thing About Texas

In many states - it is illegal to collect rainwater.

A recent Texas Supreme Court ruling states that landowners own the water (and water rights) beneath their land.

(Since I have a well in my back yard, at least I won't die of thirst if things get really bad.)

After hurricane Georges flattened us. A neighbor had a well with a pump and a lot of us got water from there. So it's def a great thing to have!

It's illegal in some States to collect rainwater? Really? How would they enforce that?

I just wish some of the people in your state used some of that water with soap........and please explain to some of your neighbors that toothpaste isn't evil.
