Further anecdote: I lived in a place in the coastal range, west of here, that was up on a hill, and used a water ram to send the remaining 10% of a seasonal spring uphill to the small water reservoir above the house. It was not rainwater though, so I should terminate the anecdote...

Ahh, I'm so glad to read that :) The rainwater system is exactly why I'm going... I helped my workplace make a donation for that, and was gifted a ticket. Incidentally, the farm I grew up on has a cool rainwater collection system, where a 20'x30' roof on top of the hill collections rainwater into a buried basin, and feeds out for animals in the fields below. I'm so proud.

Why do they always need to muck up a perfectly useful conference with
blather?
I mean, morning yoga? Linear time?
That's hardly going to bring in the masses.
Too bad, 'cause that rainwater one looks interesting.
