Cheap land, dry air is good for evaporative cooling, and many arid areas have a surprising amount of ground water. It ultimately comes down to being the cheapest option, not the smartest or best option.

    Trump will have them arrested on terrorism charges in a month...after a totally coincidental delivery of a golden idol to trump, from bezos

    edit I said this as a joke, and later found Apple recently gifted Trump a golden idol.

    God I miss when satire was silliness, and not psychic future sight.
