Note that it was not necessary to quote back the WHOLE previous 
message. Doing so just takes up excess space in the archives, slows the 
search engine, and costs money. It only takes a moment to edit out the 
excess, and if you are comfortable with putting your reply at the top of the 
response, then it is likely that ALL the quoted material could be eliminated.

Please, everyone, Nathan is not the only one who has done this. Better 
response habits from all of us will help.

Thanks for everyone's attention to this.  ;-)

Back to topic:

If you haven't actually done it, you need to start by removing both hoses and 
actually cleaning them out. Then verify that the passages leading to them are 
also clear. If the hoses are clogged, water will drip out other places, so dry 
hoses (on the outside) don't prove anything. Of course if the hoses are dry 
inside after a rain, then this proves that there is some kind of blockage 
upstream that needs to be fixed.
