Hello, we're selfish idiots
What. The. Hell.
First, the Ku Klux Klan got going there back in the day, and now Stone Mountain is proudly making some of the dumbest decisions in recent history.
There are so many things ridiculous and infuriating about this. For starters, they're tapping into the DeKalb County water lines rather than use their own lake water (because, obviously, they want the snow to be as pure white as possible). There's also the fact that we're in Georgia where it's 80 degrees in the fall.
And, oh yeah, there's that whole drought thing going on. So while the rest of us in Atlanta and Northeast Georgia rightfully have to abide by water restrictions, Stone Mountain says 'screw you guys, we want snow because it's cool.'
I'd say boycott Stone Mountain but, hell, why go there anyway?
UPDATE: Rich says they turned off the snow.

I assume that you've already seen this (http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/dekalb/stories/2007/10/02/stonesnow_1003.html) but they've turned off the snow.
Drought tastes good.
You and your child will go there sometime in the next decade
And it will involve a laser show of some sorts.
