That's close, I don't see any prefiltering but it has a ceramic filter which does all the work. I'd trust that if the British military uses it though I would want another filter for unclear water. I like the system farther down it can produce enough for a small group and the price is good. It would also need something to pre-filter unclear water unless I'm misreading it.
It's a filter with washable inlet filter, charcoal filter then a ceramic block. I've abused it and the brand name and product name are gone, sorry. I remember the process I used to find it but don't recall who I bought it from or what the brand name is.
You can google Individual Water Purifier mil spec and look for ones that are issued to troops. I was in error on having an NSN being enough and someone I know berated me for that.
You should request information from them such as "What military specifications does your device meet?" "Do you have available test data and will you provide it?" "Under what contract number did you provide this device to troops?" If they fail to provide that walk away.
I only chose one with the above criteria because of the BS in this article being the norm in this particular industry rather than the exception. I'm sure it's possible to find commercial units but I just gave up due to the BS.
I agree. I've seen many of the water purification straws which make a claim of making water safe but they never back it up with independent testing. These do have reams of association approvals and testimonials but no testing. I found and tried one that made claims of being tested by the military and that it had reams of testing done. I found that with great effort it worked for about two liters and then clogged and was useless. I didn't have to pay for it and didn't bother trying one again.
I have bought one filtration system that passed military testing and has a national stock number. It's not cheap but it can filter 1,000 gallons before needing filter replacement. I've only used it for about 50 gallons but it works well, it's easy to clean crud out of it without contaminating the outflow. It will get crud build up even if you can't see it so it's filtering something. I've not gotten sick from drinking the filtered water so far.
He's a capitolist asshole. The spelling is deliberate look it up.
But for my sake how about rear mounted, electrically fired black powder cannon loaded with chain mail and a fake license? It's cheaper and it does the exact same thing!
Is there a device that can be connected to a PC that will read punch cards? Does the iPhone have an app yet? I have simh! http://simh.trailing-edge.com/ I need to feel the smell expensive cardboard and heard grinding noises (make sure that app does sound effects!)
I started on the C-64. My only nostalgia is for the sound of a non-audio processing tape drive!
I've asked for this for over a decade. I'm not a coder and don't pretend to be one but if I could set up a locked down box that let a user feel comfortable with it even though they could not install programs I'd have been able to at least make a dent in getting people to use something other than windows. It may only have been useful for libraries, schools and other limited uses but it would have been a breach. What I received when I requested that was mockery, derision and comparisons between pintos and Ferraris.
We paid a police officer to be present as security when we tossed out the two people who made up our IT department one who was a co-owner of the computer repair department and his employee who also maintained our PCs at a company I worked at. With permission I'd already gotten all of their passwords, subverted the network and database system so running a command from any computer I was logged into removed their access and made me administrator. At the same time it locked every user out of the system. My boss knew they'd embezzled 100 grand and had proof we just wanted them to take action with witnesses when they tried to damage the system. The one auspie geek actually tried to nuke the system after he was told he could not touch a computer. They were allowed to remove some things and he jumped on a computer. The cop cuffed him and made him sit till the other person was done. They were escorted to the door. The police officer wrote up a report and gave it to my boss. He submitted that and all of the book keeping information we could recover. The local prosecutor charged them and took a plea. The co-owner took the brunt of it. We only say a fraction of what he stole but he does have a felony conviction. The auspie geek wasn't charged and went on to embezzle money from a local ISP and did get caught after new owners did an audit.
If it were not for government would corporations be so powerful? If government is effective in controlling corporations why are they so powerful? There is no real equitable means of seeking civil redress when a corporation has more resources than an individual whose property has been damaged by a corporation or government entity. So a layer of more regulation is put in place which a corporation can easily afford. It is as always a pity a corporation cannot be executed for it's crimes.
That would be a civil tort if I were properly monitoring my well water and detected it. If you actually contaminate the government authorized monopolies water I'm pretty sure they will be mildly upset.
That would be cool anyway. Just randomly show it and blare out some person's name randomly gleaned from homes within a 10 block radius. Or just limit it to cops, judges and polyticks.
High power high gain transceiver stuck right at the door of a building and looking like a brick with the bomb under the sidewalk or close by. It is feasible but so is sprinkling radioactive powder outside the targets home and having a Geiger counter set one off or sprinkling RFID 'dust' or...
In other words if someone is that determined to kill you, you will most likely be killed.
So if they could just take the rods one stormy night, mix it with the right diluent, properly package it and send it off on some missiles to Israel it's ok since it won't explode?
When it becomes naturally profitable to recycle people will do so themselves. Right now I don't throw away aluminum, stainless steel, brass, copper, lead, steel, some types of glass and several plastics plus newspapers. I use the glass, plastic and newspapers myself. I've found two places that will compete for the stainless, copper, lead and brass which I happen to come across and make my collection and transport costs worthwhile. The steel and aluminum go to another salvager which is reasonably close and pays well. I do this for my own benefit and will keep doing it regardless of the states insistence I line their pockets.
If I were a government employee and were paid by the readers, yes. That data should available publicly for any government employee who is in a position of public trust and/or profit.
You want to give a government that can't enforce the laws they have an automatic ticket writing system which they will then use to write tickets for those who can afford to pay but cannot afford to fight. Marvelous.
How the US does it is a terrible mix of mandated corporate monopolies, confiscatory taxes and fines based on a confusing number of laws spread across an insane number of jurisdictions and some jack booted thuggery. I don't recommend it.
Dumb shits like this make me want to make things that irritate them then beat the crap out of them when they trespass tying to alter it. If this does not convince such OCD cretins to mind their own business then the crippling pain will be their special friend.
We don't have much choice other than to spread like an ethical disease. The only law "No planet with sentient life may be taken. Those who do so must be exterminated."

I have iFrames blocked the same way I have iPhones, iPods, iDicks, iDildos, iPansies, iDemoccrats and iRepublicans blocked.
Cops and robbers, Cowboys and Indians, Gi Joe and Cobra, etc. It's play and it's acting and it serves a purpose.
