Gitrib, you need to check your facts. In most parts of the country, municipal water consumption pales compares to agriculture. Let's take California, for example. Agriculture accounts for 80 percent of the state's water consumption. Don't forget that many cities, including Denver and Los Angeles, actually recycle their sewage.
As for there being a limitless supply of water, most of the earth's water is unusable salt water. Much of the remainder (such as the Great Lakes and other large inland lakes) is at relatively low elevations from where it can't be easily transported to where it's needed. Most of the world, including the western US, relies heavily on glacier runoff. Glaciers are rapidly disappearing because of (dare I say it and get poofed) GLOBAL WARMING. It's a fact.
The difference between truth and BS is that the truth is still true whether you choose to believe it or not.
