more on the Great Lakes pact

Different opinions in different places...most seem to agree this draft is superior to last year's.

Best soundbite might be: better, but go back to the drawing board one more time.

The "limited" exceptions to the new anti-diversion language are troublesome, as is the absence of any reference to the public trust values of the Lakes, and a policy opposing the export of water in something besides pipelines (i.e., bottles).
