Truly a sad situation considering the techologies we have available today that could prevent this.
It is rather disgusting, it's time people wake up about our water issues and companies like PURO are leading the way in getting the word out and actually doing something about it.
Thanks.

Some Water Resource Info
The total volume of water on Earth is about 1.4 billion km3. The volume of freshwater resources is around 35 million km3, or about 2.5 percent of the total volume.
Source: United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)
Of these freshwater resources, about 24 million km3 or 70 percent is in the form of ice and permanent snow cover in mountainous regions, the Antarctic and Arctic regions.
Source: UNEP
Around 30 percent of the world's freshwater is stored underground in the form of groundwater (shallow and deep groundwater basins up to 2 000 metres, soil moisture, swamp water and permafrost). This constitutes about 97 percent of all the freshwater that is potentially available for human use.
Source: UNEP
Freshwater lakes and rivers contain an estimated 105 000 km3 or around 0.3 percent of the world's freshwater.
Source: UNEP
The Earth's atmosphere contains approximately 13,000 km3 of water.
Source: World Water Assessment Programme (WWAP)
The total usable freshwater supply for ecosystems and humans is about 200 000 km3 of water - less than 1 percent of all freshwater resources.

Many of these options will be a customer specific. If the customer wants a wiong so be it, If the customer wants diffrent tires, so be it. The inside will be standard but the outside visuals can be modified to meet what the customer wants. All this nitpicking about the outside visuals of the car make no sense to me. Instead of going to a lot to pick the color and add-ons you want for a car you order it directly from Peter and it gets built. Just my opinion.
Me too. Silly not to at these prices.
That sucks.
Drinking Water Sanitation
The UN suggests that each person needs 20-50 litres of safe freshwater a day to ensure their basic needs for drinking, cooking and cleaning.

More than one in six people worldwide - 894 million - don't have access to this amount of safe freshwater.

Globally, diarrhoea is the leading cause of illness and death, and 88 per cent of diarrhoeal deaths are due to a lack of access to sanitation facilities, together with inadequate availability of water for hygiene and unsafe drinking water.
Source: World Health Organization (WHO) and United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF)
Today 2.5 billion people, including almost one billion children, live without even basic sanitation. Every 20 seconds, a child dies as a result of poor sanitation. That's 1.5 million preventable deaths each year.
Source: Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC)
In Sub-Saharan Africa, treating diarrhoea consumes 12 percent of the health budget. On a typical day, more than half the hospital beds in are occupied by patients suffering from faecal-related disease.

Not all wet
As we in water-rich countries take our daily showers, water the lawn or laze about in the pool, it's easy to forget that fresh water is a life-or-death issue in many parts of the world.
Of a population of roughly 6.1 billion, more than 1 billion lack access to potable water. The World Health Organization says that at any time, up to half of humanity has one of the six main diseases -- diarrhea, schistosomiasis, or trachoma, or infestation with ascaris, guinea worm, or hookworm -- associated with poor drinking water and inadequate sanitation. About 5 million people die each year from poor drinking water, poor sanitation, or a dirty home environment -- often resulting from water shortage (see "Tackling the Big Three" in the bibliography).
Parched places
One glance at the map tells you that water is shortest in equatorial countries, often where populations are rising. (Population data below from Population Reference Bureau).
China, with 1.26 billion people, is "the one area worrying most people most of the time," says Marq de Villiers, author of the
recently published "Water " (see bibliography). In dry Northern China, he says, "the water table is dropping one meter per year due to overpumping, and the Chinese admit that 300 cities are running short. They are diverting water from agriculture and farmers are going out of business." Some Chinese rivers are so polluted with heavy metals that they can't be used for irrigation, he adds.
"They're disgraceful, unusable, industrial sewers," says de Villiers. As farmers go out of business, China will have to import more food.
In India, home to 1.002 billion people, key aquifers are being overpumped, and the soil is growing saltier through contamination with irrigation water. Irrigation was a key to increasing food production in India during the green revolution, and as the population surges toward a projected 1.363 billion in 2025, its crops will continue to depend on clean water and clean soil.
Israel (population 6.2 million), invented many water-conserving technologies, but water withdrawals still exceed resupply. Overpumping of aquifers along the coast is allowing seawater to pollute drinking water. Like neighboring Jordan, Israel is largely dependent on the Jordan River for fresh water.
Water Fight
Egypt, whose population of 68 million may reach 97 million by 2025, gets essentially no rainfall. All agriculture is irrigated by seasonal floods from the Nile River, and from water stored behind the Aswan High Dam. Any interference with water flow by Sudan or Ethiopia could starve Egypt.
"The Nile is one I worry about," says Sandra Postel, director of the Global Water Policy Project. Egypt, she says, is militarily powerful but vulnerable. "The hydropolitics might favor some military action, because Egypt is so heavily dependent on the Nile, it's already virtually tapping out the supply, and Ethiopia is now getting interested in developing the headwaters."
When a World Bank official suggested several years ago that water wars are not far off, he might have had Egypt on his mind -- or Turkey, Syria and Iraq, another trio of Middle-Eastern states that are locked in an uncomfortable embrace over water.
The Tigris and Euphrates Rivers both rise in Turkey and flow unimpeded to Syria and Iraq, where they provide the bulk of irrigation water needed in the arid climate. Turkey has proposed a series of dams that would reduce river flow. That causes alarm downstream.
A working river
International water politics play a role in the Southwestern United States, where the Colorado River is shared by many states before its dregs trickle into Mexico. All along the river, water is diverted for irrigation and urban water -- with Arizona and California the biggest users. Because Mexico uses the dribble of water that reaches it for irrigation, virtually nothing reaches the river's once-fertile -- and now parched and polluted -- delta on the Sea of Cortez.
The Colorado may be completely allocated, but the Southwest continues booming. According to one estimate, five of the 10
fastest-growing U.S. states are in the river's drainage. The water the newcomers drink is likely to come from farmers who now receive subsidized river water.
The rivers we've mentioned are some of the 200 and 300 major lakes and rivers that transcend national boundaries. The list includes such major items as the Nile, the Amur River between Russia and parched northern China, the Niger in Africa, and the Mekong, Indus and Ganges in Asia.
Good morning people. Once again, nice pick on CAMP IH.
Good morning people.
Yessireee.
Nice close today.
LOL - I knew that damn dog was a no good. Been sabotaging Peter like that for over a year now.
Maybe we get an update here soon with all the specs, and I really hope he addresses the air vent issue because you just know there is absolutely no other way to keep an engine from overheating. OH yeah, maybe he can tell us why 2 inches of the wiring was visible also.
Your efforts are much appreciated BC.
Who knows what the purpose is. Some will like the car some will not. I wonder who is going to get the one from the show or if it is already sold.
It's almost to comical.
You're basing you're assumptions from a moderator on and FFR forum that this does not bode well when he is just asking a question? Did you stop to think that maybe he is curious HOW THEY DID IT when he could not? Does not bode well indeed. LMFAO.
Yes, very possible.
PURO - Smart move.
Agreed. PURO is a no brainer at these levels. Expecting a few updates concerning the British Columbia developers shortly.
Water Pollution Facts and Figures
We sometimes hear politicians and pundits say, "There's no water pollution problem anymore. We've done very well cleaning up our water." Now, we would never suggest that anyone take a politician at his word or believe the TV—proceed into the spin zone at your own risk. But since there are no rivers on fire now and we don't see too many stories about fish kills, they must be right, eh? On the other hand, a majority of people in the Western world seem to think their tap water is much less safe and drinkable than bottled water, which is a very expensive way for people to quench their thirst.
So, when it comes to water pollution facts, who's all wet and who's got it right? This article is the first of a multi-part series that will splash around in the deep end of the water pollution issue.
BEFORE THE WATER POLLUTION FACTS – WATER BASICSBefore we dive into our pool of water pollution facts, it will be helpful to do a quick review of the different types of water in general:
Ocean Water: The vast majority of water on the planet is the salt water in the oceans and seas.
Fresh Surface Water: This is the fresh water in rivers, streams, lakes, ponds and similar bodies of water. (Almost all of these contain fresh water, though a few lakes contain salty water.) Technically, the world's ice caps and glaciers also fall into this category , and actually contain very, very large amounts of fresh water.
Groundwater: The majority of the planet's liquid freshwater is stored in underground aquifers. It's important to remember that groundwater pollution is very difficult to treat, and it doesn't just "flush out" on its own. Water that enters an aquifer remains there for an average of 1,400 years!
Hey, I think that was our first water pollution fact! Here are some more.
WATER POLLUTION FACTS FOR THE UNITED STATESWater Pollution Fact #1
40% of America's rivers are too polluted for fishing, swimming, or aquatic life.
Water Pollution Fact #2
Even worse are America's lakes—46% are too polluted for fishing, swimming, or aquatic life.
Water Pollution Fact #3
Two-thirds of US estuaries and bays are either moderately or severely degraded from eutrophication (nitrogen and phosphorus pollution).
Water Pollution Fact #4
The Mississippi River—which drains nearly 40% of the continental United States, including its central farm lands—carries an estimated 1.5 million metric tons of nitrogen pollution into the Gulf of Mexico each year. The resulting hypoxic coastal dead zone in the Gulf each summer is about the size of Massachusetts.
Endangered Rivers
The river-protection group American Rivers lists the primary water pollution threats for U.S rivers:
-- Polluted runoff from roads, parking lots, and neighborhood lawns
-- Runoff from farms (pesticides, fertilizers, and animal waste)
-- Livestock damage to riparian areas (reduces near-stream filtering abilities)
-- Logging and mining operations
Of the 1200 species listed as threatened or endangered, 50% depend on rivers and streams. At least 123 freshwater species became extinct during the 20th century.

Water Pollution Fact #5
1.2 trillion gallons of untreated sewage, stormwater, and industrial waste are discharged into US waters annually. The US EPA has warned that sewage levels in rivers could be back to the super-polluted levels of the 1970s by the year 2016.
Water Pollution Fact #6
In any given year, about 25% of beaches in the US are under advisories or are closed at least one time because of water pollution.
WATER POLLUTION FACTS BEYOND THE U.S.Water Pollution Fact #7
Asian rivers are the most polluted in the world. They have three times as many bacteria from human waste as the global average and 20 times more lead than rivers in industrialized countries.
Water Pollution Fact #8
In 2004, water from half of the tested sections of China's seven major rivers was found to be undrinkable because of pollution.

Water Pollution Fact #16
Diseases caused by the ingestion of water contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, viruses, or parasites include:
cholera
typhoid
schistosomiasis
dysentery and other diarrheal diseases
Water Pollution Fact #17
Bangladesh has some of the most polluted groundwater in the world. In this case, the contaminant is arsenic, which occurs naturally in the sediments. Around 85% of the total area of the country has contaminated groundwater, with at least 1.2 million Bangladeshis exposed to arsenic poisoning and with millions more at risk.
Water Pollution Fact #18
Each year, plastic waste in water and coastal areas kills up to:
100,000 marine mammals,
1 million sea birds, and
countless fish.
Water Pollution Fact #19
The world's seas are beset by a variety of water pollution problems. See the table below for 10 of the worst areas.
Water Pollution Fact #20
In one week, a typical cruise ship generates:
210,000 gallons of sewage;
1,000,000 gallons of "gray water" from showers, sinks, dishwashers and clothes washers;
37,000 gallons of oily bilge water;
more than eight tons of solid waste; and
toxic wastes from onboard operations like dry cleaners and photo processing laboratories.
Water Pollution Fact #21
Around 80% of the pollution in seas and oceans comes from land-based activities.
Yep.
You know, it sounds to me that a bunch of the people on those other boards are disgruntled shareholders. Notice how they slip stuff in like "typical revenge fashion" and crap like that?
Looks like .55 is gonna be some good support. 10 Ma is crossing the 50 MA but like you said it could drop to the .50 area aaat the 20MA line.
Don't know, .76 may be as low as it goes unless some other factor comes into play, 20 MA should be pretty good support there. May be worth a dabble and if it drops below load up in the .60's like you said.
Where is that from?
LOL.
Good analysis LTM.
