Uh, to clarify CA steals water from CO, UT, NV and AZ.

They would be stealing water from WA, OR, MT, ID and anyone else they could have gotten away with it from.

If your going to talk trash about water in the west, I highly suggest you read up on it. Cadillac Desert is a good start. A little slanted (what isn't) but a pretty thorough and interesting read. I grew up in the Bureau of Reclamation (literally) and saw most of what that book describes first hand. I would call the book anti-BOR, but it gets most of the major points right.

And it's entertaining to boot... if you live in the south west (and even if you don't) I highly recommend it. Colorado river basin is in about year six of it's 20 year drought/flood cycle - that's part of the reason I am hanging out back east smile - waiting to see what happens (population has exploded since the last drought cycle).
