There was an article on HN some time back, which chronicled the life of a surveyor who presented evidence to the Congress early in the history of the United States. He basically said that state lines were being drawn all wrong and that conflict over water would be baked in. Can't for the life of me remember his name or google it up, but it looks very apt for this discussion.
