I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
rattraveller January 27, 2016 - 12:45pm | Interesting but Bermuda an island nation with NO fresh water has been using condensation tech to supplement water supply for decades. When I visited there in the 70s and asked why all the big buildings were painted pink was told that that was the best color to collect morning dew with. Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go? |
