    Yeah, but they’ve been sucking that thing dry for centuries, surely after centuries of careless use, rampant wastefulness, pollution and countless other things, you aren’t suggesting that water sources can deplete!

    If I cover a cup with my hand and keep drinking, I won’t know when it’s out of water, therefore it will never run out! Its brilliant.

    Also if I can’t see you, you can’t see me.

    Flawless logic…

    I’ve literally heard people say groundwater can’t rub out because it still rains…

      Depends on what you’re drawing from. If you’re talking about somewhere like Denmark with tons of groundwater because of porous valleys, that’s pretty much true (though you can certainly use so much of it that the rain won’t replenish it, similar to surface water). Fossil aquifers like ogallala, not so much.
