This invention needs one massive round of applause.
This also needs to be funded by our government, purchased, and distributed (under supervision) to parts of the world that are suffering from a lack of clean drinking water.
If this thing does sell and makes a difference, then i think he might be getting a few awards.
Please point to some evidence that would prove that the government is capable of undertaking this task without screwing it up beyond recognition. While you're at it, point at something that explains to me why my tax dollars should be used in this way.
No. If the government undertook this, I can guarantee you that it would be millions - if not billions - of dollars over budget, half the budget will have been spent to build bridges in some Congressman's district, the other half will have been used to pay off some lobbyists, the units won't work properly, they won't be delivered until three years after they're due, and when they are delivered, it will turn out that we've actually delivered some warheads or something by mistake.
