DC, thats exactly what the lakes around here are for, runoff..This is flat land country, I get goose bumps crossing the intercoastal because it has elevation to it. I live on Louise Lake, they just finished working on diverting runoff water from the main street to the lake to help and replenish it.They installed a drain about 4ft round and brought in down 3 blocks to the lake. My lake as well as many others house an endangered and protected species of bird, the SandKey Crane, noisy buggers, they stand 3 ft tall, they like to squawk alot..If you hit one with your vehicle you must call 911, I dont know what for, if you hit one more then likely hes dead. As far as Florida disappearing, meh if you buy that then you bought Al Gores theory on global warming, it aint happening.
