    Chris George Carlos to Cut Back Water Usage

    Decatur Metro | November 13, 2007

    If you’ve been paying attention to local or national news, you may have heard about one water user in Atlanta that’s consuming a lot more than everyone else. About 60 times more. That’s about 400,000 gallons a month.

    Well, David over at Decatur-DeKalb reports that WSB 750 radio is saying that Carlos has said that he will cut back water usage. Channel 2 now has the full story.  It seems that the 400,000 gallons a month claim was slightly over stated.  It was ONLY 121,000!  Apparently, Carlos was having his landscapers continuous change out plantings so he was still within the law.

    David has also done some impressive bloggeresque digging to nearly linking the water guzzler with Emory’s Michael C. Carlos benefactor.

    I’m not sure this means much to Emory. The university only accepts cash, not tap water.
