Pumps' Perplexities

Years ago and throughout recorded history, people fought
for "water rights"....Water, its source and usage, formed
many aspects of the modern world and the way we live
today.....This above ground resource is still a subject of
daily life and its value to living on "Earth"....

As of late it appears that an underground resource will
control the lives of earth's inhabitants, that being oil.....

The earth's oil reserves have made many rich and many
devout....The control of this substance will effect economies,
and societies.....Just the way water has done.....

Any resource, produced by the "earth", is a tool or
weapon in the "life of man".......Pumps
