Default Lance: Doper and Ecoterrorist?

Found in the comments section of a TdF article on NBC's web site. LOL:

"Cyclist star Lance Armstrong has a gorgeous home in Texas, and is
apparently one of the biggest users of water in the whole state.

So from a champion cyclist to a champion water waster, which is a
surprise since Lance is quite well known for being really socially
conscious. But chances are, he might not know about how much water his
home consumes.

In July, 2008, Mr. Armstrong, who won the Tour de France seven times,
used a whopping 330,000 gallons of water at his lush Spanish-colonial
home, with an acre of gardens and a swimming pool, city water
authority officials said.

This tremendous flow of H2O, which is 38 times what the average
household in the city uses in the summer, comes as Texas is going
through a dry spell and officials are asking people to cut back on
watering their lawns. "We are definitely short on rain," Lisa Rhodes,
a spokeswoman for the authority, said with a sigh.

Mr. Armstrong declined to be interviewed. "

“I’m a little shocked,” he told The Statesman. “There’s no
justification for that much water.” He added, “I need to fix this.”

The article is almost a year old. Did he "fix this"?

He probably needs to consult with Mel Gibson on how to handle that one.

Sure, like he kept his promise to Heras to help him win the Vueta when
he joined US Postal to help him level the competition in the climbs in
2002 and 2003.
