Default The return of Hetch Hetchy?

I just saw a report that San Francisco will vote on draining Hetch Hetchy reservoir in Yosemite. Those of you in the area, is there any chance it'll pass? Where would SF get its water?

Safeway sells water, I'm pretty sure the one down by the Marina district has it.

haha!

But on a serious note, I don't think this will happen anytime soon, we'll probably have to wait for a quake to tear the damn dam down.

Just visited John Muir's house and watched an interesting movie about him, they showed images of the valley before, gorgeous. Not to say that a mountain lake is ugly, but it's a shame they flooded that valley.
