Thanks for the outstanding lead.

I refuse to live in an area where water could easily be turned off. But, this is a solution to the water problem. I have a ceramic water filter, but to be realistic, gotta have water to feed it. I have family that lives in the southwest and the idea of a solar still is fantastic. Who wants to live off of filtered pool water, ugh! In the times of NO Public water, a still makes alot of sense.
