FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif. It used to be so final: flush the toilet, and waste be gone.
But on Nov. 30, for millions of people here in Orange County, pulling the lever will be the start of a long, intense process to purify the sewage into drinking water after a hard scrubbing with filters, screens, chemicals and ultraviolet light and the passage of time underground.

I have a feeling this is going to happen more and more. The earth is in serious need of water preservation and in Southern California with all of the fires and dry weather this is probably well needed.
Thoughts?-

I think that it also is soon going to catch on. People don't want to stop using their water and we are running out. I mean not like tomorrow but we are using to much, I think it is a good idea and that it will hopefully help the problem.
