I am distressed that you are so enthralled with golf courses, especially in Palm Springs. Golf courses take over the water of the world. I once stayed in a small village on the coast of Mexico, where a developer bought half of the village in order to put in a golf course. The golf course took most of the water, and the villagers were left with little. I drove up to our local golf course last year, the day after a major rain storm. The automatic sprinklers were on, wasting all our water. If people want exercise and want to play mind games, they can go for a walk or a hike in the woods and do some puzzles. We should all boycott golf courses. In California, they say to stop eating avocados because they take so much water. I will stop eating avocados when they close every golf course in the world. I hope you reconsider idolizing golf courses and let your audience know the truth about golf courses.
