| I understand how it works......except for the fact that if the water level in the lower tank decreased due to evaporation or something, and an air space formed between the upper level and lower. Wouldn't all the water rush out, flooding the space??

| Yes basically. It relies on a suction effect. Ever seen the movie Beerfest? The boot. Once that the suction breaks the air just pushes the water somewhere else and you have a mess.
