My thoughts exactly. In addition to pumped water, I don't see why flywheels or the compressing of air couldn't be used to smooth out the release of energy between peak and non-peak periods.
Yeah, you totally reminded me of when we used to play a game "Jim's leg" where we'd run around and chuck one of GI Joe's buddies severed legs. I don't know if the figures name was Jim, but man we used to get welts from it. Badminton would have been much more civilized.
actually I don't feel old - at least I can still remember it - for the timebeing...
Last I checked, brita (and other brands as well) filter out chemicals, particles and stuff, not bacteria. I have no idea if this thing actually works, but it sounds like it only kills germs/parasites, not filter out things such as lead particles. If this thing is for real, you might want to use both, not replace the brita with it.

I'm betting this strange luminecent phenomenon is more likely due to "blue smoke".
