Ärende: RE: A SORRY LOT WE ARE 70704
====================================
Hi Glen!
-> 
->  -> Good morning Hap,
->  HN> Morning? Why son it's the middle of the afternoon! (grin)
-> 
-> I slept in!
-> 
Ah the life of the idle rich eh? (grin)
 
->  -> During WW2, with a lot of hard work, my parents' garden supplied a
->  -> large proportion of the food for a family of 4.  We are a lot lazier
->  -> now, and kids are strangely reluctant to desert their electronic toys
->  -> for the joys of collecting manure and digging it into an onion plot.
->  ->  
->  HN> Yes, and as I aged I became less and less interested in doing that
->  HN> same  chore myself! (grin)
-> 
-> I did enough of that during my teen years to last me out.
->  
I see we are paddleing the same boat !

->  -> At present I pay Aus$1.09 per kilolitre (say, $5 per 1000 gallons), and
->  -> the price is expected to increase considerably in the future.
->  ->  
->  HN> I'd have to ask what our rate is but I'm sure it's not 1/20th of
->  HN> yours. 
-> 
-> So as you can see, there are real long-term savings to be made here by
-> using rain-water tanks.
-> 
I should think so!

->  -> For which, Arnie's mob can be thankful, and hopefully enough of the
->  -> present generation will have similar forward thinking to provide for
->  -> the future generations.
->  ->  
->  HN> Well, they don't have nearly as many "forward thinkers" now as they
->  HN> did  then...and the fact that they have "brown outs" every summer 
and
->  HN> have to  buy power from us and the Canadians and anyone else 
who's got
->  HN> a watt for  sale.
-> 
-> Maybe it is all the film stars needing to air condition their huge
-> mansions who are not worried about the costs of power...
-> 
You have grasped the concept exactly! But it's not just the film stars its just

about everybody! We're going down to visit my daughter just north of San 
Francisco...the Central valley which we will be driving down as we go will 
have temps in the 107-114 degree range (degrees Farenheit of course! ) so 
MOST of the people will be running air conditioning in their homes and 
businesses. A HUGE power eater!

-> A new, 10 storey building going up in Adelaide for SA Water will be the
-> first six Green Star rated building in the state.  80% of construction
-> and demolition waste is being recycled, the builder is using rain water
-> for flushing toilets, and waterless urinals.  The completed building
-> will incorporate a black-water treatment plant to reduce potable water
-> consumption, photovoltaic roof panels and a gas fired cogeneration
-> plant, and is designed to use mainly natural lighting.
-> 
Good thinking!
->  -> 
->  -> That area of South Australia actually has quite a high rainfall, and
->  -> the swamps were kept wet by rows of ancient sandhills between the 
->  HN> swamp
->  -> and the sea.  Drains were cut through these sandhills 80 years ago, to
->  -> turn the area into pasture, and dairy farms.  It would be easy to block
->  -> off these drains and allow the swamps to re-form, but would displace
->  -> the dairy farmers now living there.  The whole area is very flat, so
->  -> dams cannot be built.   A difficult problem.
->  -> 
->  HN> No dams perhaps but earthen dikes could be built with little
->  HN> difficulty. The  real problems come from maintaining them!
-> 
-> It is an area of several hundred square kilometres.  Filling in the
-> drains would retain the water and return the area to swampland, but
-> collecting water from that sort of formation would be difficult.

Difficult perhaps, but not un doable...getting and maintaining a clean intake 
system would be the first problem I'd think!
chat with you soon
