OT another electric / electronics question

The earlier post got me to thinking which can get me into trouble. Many moons ago when I had a physics course I remember studying electricity and trying to under stand ohms, watts, volts etc. Somewhere in my reading I came accross an analogy comparing electricity flowing through a wire to water flowing through a pipe. Something was analagous to the pressure, something to gal/min, pipe size to wire guage, and so on. Do any of you know what this analogy was or if it is at all accurate? I've looked a few times in some old books I still have but can't find it. Maybe it's just an old age brain short circuit and I just imagine I saw this somewhere.
