| There's a lot of concern about the aquifers in Arkansas. The two major ones are showing signs of going dry. We have the ability to pump water, but it's so dry that there's no water to pump. |
| If we needed the roads to be fixed, they said that's the city road, and the city would say that's the state's road. We just going back and forth between them. Now our senator said he's gonna see to it that they both do it. |

| The problem isn't private transportation. The problem is that we have an old-fashioned 19th-century technology, the internal combustion engine using fossil fuels. Let's solve that problem -- maybe by creating small, fuel-efficient vehicles -- and stop talking about putting the city back into its 19th-century state to make mass transit work.

| Essentially, we've completed the things we agreed that we would. Also, we're looking into the installation of a pump in the basement or the elevator shaft.
