"Lifesaver Bottle" Filters Viruses Out of Water
gihan_ripper writes "British inventor Michael Pritchard has developed a small self-contained filter system that instantly cleans water, removing all particles larger than 15nm. He said that he was inspired after seeing the effects of Hurricane Katrina and the Boxing Day tsunami in 2004; people had to wait for many days to get fresh water and many died from drinking contaminated water. The filter is so effective that it can purify dirty river water and even fecal matter. His bottle will shortly be available for sale from Lifesaver Systems at an expected cost of £190 (approx. $385)."
No shit!
Is there one for Windows?
May the Maths Be with you!
Does it remove Dihydrogen Monoxide from the water?
I'm not sure you understand the purpose of peeing.

Damned metric system!
From the lifesaver systems "unique features" page:
Finally. I hate when my teat gets all chewed up. It's also pretty creepy that my previous teat can taste me whenever I use it.
Dewey, you fool! Your decimal system has played right into my hands!
I wholeheartedly agree. In fact, you should start drinking your own urine, so you get used to the taste, just in case the water suddenly runs out. I know I have!

Hey MacGyver is that you!?! This is Pete Thornton. Call into home base will ya buddy... it's been a while.
firstly, I just picked a scabby bit of a off my toe, it has 23 pairs of chromosomes, is it a human being? should I put it in petri dish and feed it, and keep it alive. I think I will call this little human Toby, Toby the toe wart.
Secondly, can I buy some pot from you?
What if Tetris was invented by Nazis?
Day 1
Mommy, I am only 8 inches long, but I have all my organs. I love the sound of your voice. Every time I hear it, I wave my arms and legs. Wait a minute mommy, you must suck at biology! If this is day one I am a divided egg swimming in a sea of sailor jizz. Oh god please let it stop it smells like a rotten mushroom farm in here.
Day 2
Mommy, I tried to stick my thumb in my mouth today but a meat stick the shape of a German Solider helmet kept poking me in the mouth and the soft spot on my head. Good by college. Also I am growing in here, what is will all the rotten cum still dropping in to visit
Day 3
You know what Mommy, I'm a girl!! I hope that makes you happy. Well I was going to be a boy but now, like, you I have had just way to many dicks in me to go back. All the cum in here stings my eyes, i think I have fetal pirate eye!
Day 4
Mommy, my hair is starting to grow. Also please lay off the spicy foods, that curry chicken you had last night ran right through me and I think I squirted a little diarhea in here, Do you ever change the fucking water? IT smells like a 6 year old ham sandwich stored in sealed Tupperware in the Sahara!
Day 5
You went to the doctor today. He told you I was damaged due to all the cum and getting poked by cocks. It reeks so bad in here I just want out. I found specks of shit floating around in here today. SHIT! stop the ass to cunt sex mom, your killing me!
Day 6
I can hear that doctor again. Is he drunk? finally this murky jizz bath is being drained. My suffering has ended. Wait oh shit my heart has been ripped out by a coat hanger and now beats in front of me. That is ok, I was long dead before this happend.
Day 7

Is buying a Harley Davidson as your first motorcycle since you were 16 at age 49 a midlife crisis issue?
I'm sorry, I didn't get the chance to select the country in which I was born. How did you manage to do that?

The problem is the idea that you can keep a historic city below sea level and nothing bad will ever happen.
You seem to have forgotten about a little place called Atlantis. Thousands of years below sea-level and I've never heard any bad stories. In fact, their Chupacabra production levels are at an all-time high. I've heard that famous celebrities like Elvis Presley and Bigfoot own real-estate there...
you forgot to add "and i *liked* it!" if youre going to be hardcore. sound hardcore ;)

Survival tip:
Whenever you go hiking or exploring, take a deck of cards with you. If you get hopelessly lost, sit down and start playing solitaire. Within five minutes, someone will be standing over your shoulder, telling you which card to move next.

It was in the drop down list just before you were conceived - right between sexual orientation and skin color. Sheesh, all these people complain - I bet they just clicked through without checking out the options (hint: Next time don't do "Default" configuration, go through "Advanced").
Alternatively, bring a length of optical cable. In case of emergency, bury it. A backhoe will be along shortly to dig it up.

In fact, pee into a bottle now and store it in your hiking/camping kit for emergencies.
Doesn't it make you feel good to know that our freedoms are protected by politicans, lawyers and journalists.
Although I hate to be the geek that gets this pedantic over a joke, I can't resist pointing out that stillsuits were a Fremen invention long before Muad'Dib arrived, so the laws of thermodynamics must still be considered.
