I believe pretty much all almonds grown in Cali are "non pariel." My understanding is that they are more uniform in size and shape. I think they are also supposed to be sweeter. But they have NO flavor. If you've ever had Amaretto, you know what almonds are supposed to taste like. The only time that I've ever had almonds that tasted like almonds was if they came from Europe.

Right, as the level of the water drops, the pressure drops and when the pressure/level gets too low, functionality/efficiency also drops.
