We own you, and we own the rain

Just today, Karissa told me about Colorado's law forbidding private citizens from collecting water in rain barrels. I just swiped this off the gardening blog. Colorado will no longer put you in the pokey over a little rain. In some parts of the country, it's still a crime. In others, it's a crime not to.

Wonder what Utah does to little kids catching raindrops on their tongues? Send them to juvie?
