Something Good



The building above does not look like much, but it can be salvation for those who have difficulty getting clean water.  This building houses a Slingshot water purification system which can turn just about any form of water - river water, ocean water and even raw sewage - into clean drinking water.  The system was created almost ten years ago by Dean Kamen, the inventor of the Segway.  It looks as though it will soon become widely used because Coca-Cola has taken on the distribution and logistics functions for Kamen's invention.  The pilot projects implemented so far seem very promising.
