Post equipment for the apocalypse
A bottle is going on the market soon that'll be able to filter water without the use of chemicals. It has a really thing screen (15nm) that filters it for you. Web page here:

Unfortunately it'll be expensive. To the tune of £190 (approx. $385)

It may sound strange to you Sat, but when you give costs in GBP or USD, it looks to me the same as if you told them in LBP or LRD. Okay, not exactly so, because I learned already that GBP > EUR > USD, but almost...

Yet, when you tell a cost in EUR, I have an exact idea of how much that is.

Unless some people are expecting a nuclear war or something, i wonder if it will get very popular. Maybe if the army starts using it.

I prefer chemicals though :)

Considering the pollution problems that exist, it'd be nice to have even for like camping and stuff. No more need to haul up our own water, just purify stream/river/lake water and drink it. :)
