Guest guest Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Water you saying? The state of water storage in some states is so dire that they have announced that there is only seven days of water left in their dams. So probably after a week, they will have to drink Soft drinks instead of water, as their ads show that there is plenty of stock of soft drinks, probably more than that in the dams. And if this dire situation continues, they might have to use tissue paper for baths and pin their postage stamps. What is surprising is that throughout the month of May, the Meteorological department had predicted 100% normal monsoons. As one Mumbaikar retorted, " So what if June has been a dry month, in Mumbai, we are facing a longer dry spell thanks to ACP Dhobale. " So, what is the scientific solution to this problem? A politician has held a Mahayagya to appease the rain Gods, and bring in the much delayed monsoon. Yeah! That is a solution, but not for rains, it is a solution for public visibility and publicity. Science is the art of observation and conclusions. So I have always observed that whenever the Weather department predicts sunny skies, I come back drenched from work. And when they ask me not to forget my umbrella, I lug it around unused, until I forget it on the bus or train back home. So here's my simple solution. The Weather department should predict a long drawn out famine and drought situation. And I am sure that as usual they will be proven wrong and we will have timely and plenty of rains. Over to you, Met department. -Kishore Shah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
