    That’s far smaller than I expected. I also don’t imagine it will be cheap. If they manage to make it less than $100,000 then I’ll be baffled. Less than $500,000 and I’ll be excited for the possibilities in my lifetime.

      Considering the amount of water it produces, I imagine it would be a community rather than an individual that buys it.
