What do you think? Some people don't even want to use the water even if it's been recycled/washed, like once my uncle said we should throw out a bowl we were using unless we vomited.

True but if this system can be centrally applied on a large scale, like say handling all the sewage of a large american city, or even more important, that of an indian or chinese city, then atleast we can help out with the pollution problems and over-fertilization issues. And get good organic fertilizer that can be put to good use elsewhere.

Uh...dude, this system is used on a large scale in bio-treatment plants! It's exactly the same scheme, perhaps minus the soil-producing worms. The thing about this particular system is that it's possible to install it in a single-family dwelling. That's the only thing that's particularly revolutionary about it.

Okay I got the impression it was a totally new technique.

I think it's really cool actually. I don't see why people are squeamish about recycled drinking water. At the end of the day, H20 is H20 is H20. Running it through a worm's ass doesn't change it any.

Refine the technology some and make it a standard feature in a good sized home. Recycling shouldn't just extend to your pop cans. If we took large steps to reuse everything we can, it would be a large step in the right direction.
