(User Info)

I do not know the technicalities of siphoning personally, but an old boss of mine worked for the city of Sacramento for a while as one of their engineers. He explained to me what he did, but its been years since hes told me, and I have probably forgotten a lot. Siphoning is what I am remembering . . . coupled with some sort of strange 'lock' system similar to the panama canal.

Maybe I should have just kept my mouth shut ? heh.
