Part of the mission will be to make urine drinkable---wow, the search engine's will have a field day on that one.

Here's a link to a Philadelphia Daily News article about it...

This article is interesting because it highlight's the Shuttle commander---Chris Ferguson, who is a Philadelphia native, and a graduate of Drexel University.

For those of you who have been following my blog, you may know that both of my sons attend Drexel University. It's quite a feather in the cap of an engineering university to have a Shuttle commander among its graduates.

By the way, call John Smiley, the Capitalist, at 856-314-8615 for a confidential paid appraisal of the University.
