Largest water reservoir discovered in black hole. "The reservoir holds as much as 140 trillion oceans, or more than 4,000 times more than exists in the entire Milky Way. It exists as vapour spread across hundreds of light years. While water has been found across much of the universe previously, this is interesting because of the fact this reservoir is 12 billion light years away, meaning that this water existed when the universe was only 1.6 billion years old. "NASA - Astronomers Find Largest, Most Distant Reservoir of Water

Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

See? ain't those Californians a bunch of whiners? They have the biggest ocean in the world next to them.
They have all that water underground and now, over their heads as well.
They're always bragging about how frikkin' excellent they are, got the world by the short hairs.
All they do is sit home on the couch whimpering or go out and steal somebody else's water.
Land of opportunity, oh yeah, sure is. it seems like a curse to me. Can't wait until the San Andreas gets frisky.
Time to put up or shut up, Cali. I know, why don't you just buy some from the Chinese?
Get all them commie movie stars to pony up some cash, help their brothers.
Yeah, lip service is good for just that, if they swallow.
