You're surrounded by water. Can't Bermuda desalinate the water and suppy the whole island?

Curacao does that. They have no fresh water anywhere on the island, except for all them dang
cactus.
 
Yes we have desal plants...BUT...the entire Island is not piped to distribute it. There are water truckers who deliver. 10 14 day waiting period because of the demand. Normally the steady rainfall will keep replenishing the tanks under the house..but with no rain we can use up all you have. I only have a 9,000 gallon tank. Showers are turn on get wet, turn off. Get washed, turn water on and rinse off turn water off.

I'm not drilling 260 feet to sink a well to get fresh water. We flush with our tank water so the rule is:

If it's yellow, it can mellow..if it's brown, let it go down.

Hope you got your hurricane hole selected, by NOW. 260' is not deep for a fresh water well, drilling's gotta be cheaper than building a 9,000 gallon cistern? My well is about 700' (below mean grade) and I'm into a natural pressure stratum that allows the cool, clear fresh water to flow without using a pump.
 
I thought the post title TD1 was about the ST. Louis Rams football team as that, if any, is the number of touchdowns they usually get per game. On a good day. With the wind. And if all the oposing team players are hurt or on strike.
