No, I'm talking about municipal capture directly from the storm drains. This is water that isn't covered by water rights and is currently going to waste. It's entirely different than, say, runoff in Colorado which is counted as part of the river allocation and therefore already assigned before it hits the ground. Granted, this water is severely contaminated from its journey through the storm drains, but treating it is cheaper than desal and more palatable than toilet to tap.

As someone who comes from a state who's problem is getting rid of an over abundance of water, is there a specific reason why there are so many Californians trying to farm in extremely arid or desert like areas other than because they have "water rights"?

As mentioned above, it's only a desert in the sense that it receives low rainfall. Before westerners arrived, there was a giant lake in the Central valley that deposited tons of topsoil over thousands of years, and it only disappeared when the rivers that fed it were dammed. Much like Lake Chad or the Aral Sea, river diversion dramatically changed the climate, though unlike those states most of the water was still available for use in the region.

Given the crossover between straight and gay porn for female performers I'd imagine that they'd follow production. If the major producers all move out of state they'd probably pull the talent with them for convenience.

Interesting, I suppose. I need to learn more about some of these people though because I do not recognize all those names.
