I'm downvoted for suggesting that the LA river was okay ecologically, extremely utilitarian, and that the cutting off its flow was a conspiracy with effects made obvious by this article about LA's other water source, the Colorado River. The making of the LA river was a conspiracy! You people don't know anything, you just think yr smart.
