Fleetwood, thrilled to hear about the desalination plant in San Diego. I was gonna ask when that guy posted about the car running on salt water. About time!

Chickens home to roost. California is starting to get serious about desalination, with a plant opening next year in San Diego area, and down in LA, spray-painting the lawn green, is a booming business. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <j_alexander_stanley@...> wrote : Personally, I'm much more enthusiastic about the current Sustainable Living program and the people it attracts than any aspect of the university in previous decades. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : Yeah, there's not much point in paying attention to Turq's well-established routine. At MIU in the early to mid-1980s, we had some truly remarkable students. Very, very smart people; it was a pleasure to have them in the classroom. I still remember some of the discussions we had in class. Absolutely brilliant. Some very smart faculty too. The place was alive. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <steve.sundur@...> wrote : What's remarkable is how much he has invested in this. I mean he's either telling us how, "over it" he is, or it's the subject matter of most everything he posts. I guess he then goes into the kitchen to make some popcorn and get a drink to watch a TV episode or a movie feeling confident about himself because he thinks he just pushed some buttons. Hey, a routine, is a routine. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : No, not brainwashed. Young, idealistic, enthusiastic, inspired. I was there in 1981, and it was a good place to be. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : The shock is not how incredibly brainwashed these people are as they parrot buzzphrases and display absolutely no individuality whatsoever. The shock is that 34 years later people still think like this and talk like this, some of them here on this very forum. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bteLrKEfj3g&feature=share
