You know what, it might not stop at all. Your post would be funny except that it cuts too close to the bone. If you look at lakes in Europe or some even in California, you see that where there is dense population and life threatening water issues, motor boats are often not allowed at all. We have a tremendous gift of abundance here, but people take it for granted and push it to the absolute limit. I have thought for a long time that we should be a little more concerned about the sustainability of the resource than our immediate pleasure. And seeing all that garbage on the lakebed during the low-water levels this past year, it really was heart wrenching to realize how little respect for this resource some people have. I don't want to start up about it again, but when those diapers come rolling in during high traffic season, one really wonders why people have to be told FOR EXAMPLE not to throw dirty diapers in the lake. But people do have to be told, and that is what is so amazing to me.
