e: ... this is bizarre ... water is restored to Magdalena after weeks of hardship and nobody claims credit for the success ... the driller isn't even named ... was drilling done? ... "crews repairing the well announced it was finally fixed" ...
... and what's with the $200,000? ... the village of Magdalena mayor and council approved a $200,000 transfer of funds from the general fund into the enterprise fund and ... voila ... problem fixed ...
... why did it take 3 weeks to do if it was that easy? ... was that money really there the whole time? ... are you sure it wasn't $72,000? ...
