Darwinian gardening again

The Darwinian Gardener is interviewed in the newsjournalonline. He explains how Darwinian gardening also applies to buried sprinkler systems, which is something that never occurred to me, I must admit. But I think he's running perilously close to self-contradiction even having sprinklers.

There is a strong argument to be made that the recent flooding in Colorado is the result of global warming. Here are three things one could say about the flooding. Think of these as alternative hypotheses to explain that event:
You may recall that some whackaloons going to pray for rain in Denver to ruin Obama's acceptance speech. It didn't work — no surprise there — but there was an incident, a small selective event. A defective sprinkler went off, flooding a skybox booth.
I'll have more to say about housing as an investment (hint: in quite a few cases, it's incredibly bad), but one thing to keep in mind is that people don't always protect their investments as well as they should.

Surely it's acceptable for a Darwinian to have fossil sprinklers buried in his garden. All he has to do to get them working is to replace the missing link.
