I recently saw the video about the 15nm water filter intended for the third world. The guy takes sewage right on stage, with fecal matter in it, filters it with a hand-held water filter, and drinks it in front of everyone. The filter theoretically can filter 6000 liters, which is about enough for one person to drink for 8 years. I'm thinking about buying one myself for long hiking trips.
I want bad people to look forward to and celebrate the day I die, because if they don't, I'm not living up to my potential.
