oh-kay. Well, I found a somewhat fine place on map, with everything I wanted (well, besides magma). So there are questions.

First, does fertility level of soil depends on its type? for example, silt vs sand vs mud ?
Second, what can you say about water resources:
a) Will fish replenish in lakes from zero? It seems that rivers/brooks are infinite sources of fish.
b) Will water in lakes replenish in spring? And if lake was dried?
c) Am I understand correctly that _one_ dwarf with _one_ bucket carries _one_ water level from _one_ tile?
d) How much water dwarf drinks? Because I once constructed well site like this:

(to brook)
  #~#
####~#
#~~+~#
#<~#X#
#~~~~#
######

X is floodgate, + is artifical wall(stupid dwarf entered tunnel and put floodgate behind nimself, effectively locking himself.)
And for about two years water level never decreased. Or artifical walls doesn't hold water?

Well, that;s all for now.

AND just another question before I forget about it - I'm currently using "The Mike Mayday graphics edition", and encountered a problem - I have to press 'enter' twice. All other keys working normally. Is this a bug or a feature?

a) Yes, apparently on season change.
b) No. Never. (until code gets added in to refill them)
c) I've not tried bucket brigading, but I think that is how it works.
d) None, if there is booze available. One level of water if they are injured or if there is no more booze around.
