Actually that's more of a response to the fact that in the 90's they continued to have incredible growth being labeled the 11th fastest growing state.
The state of Hawaii is currently close to a drought status, but that doesn't mean much to you discussion of the 80's. It's more again a response to what's required for the future since power plants and desalination plants require planning and time to build in order to meet the needs of the growing population. Build too soon and the building is wasted in efficiency and usage. Build too late and people won't be interested in living where no services are present.

Ignoring their rationalization makes no sense in the conversation. You asked why they were doing it and I asked if they gave a reason.

I didn't ask anything of the sort. I asked if they were LYING about how much water it took to wash the glasses. Please read carefully. Please look again at the examples I posted of the table tents, Hawaii 2 glasses conserved, NorthEast 5 glasses conserved, San Diego no mention of how much water is conserved.

So you think a tiny island gets as much melt water as the NE?

Melt water has NOTHING to do with how much water it takes to WASH a glass. What I'm asking is "How much water does it take to wash a glass?" So far we have 2 glasses of water, 5 glasses of water, unknown glasses of water to pick from. Someone has to be right and someone has to be wrong.
