Drought-Stricken Texas Town Taps Urine For Water 300
An anonymous reader writes "Texas is in the midst of a drought so severe that local water management teams have decided to distribute reclaimed wastewater (aka urine). The Colorado River Municipal Water District in West Texas has broken ground on a $13 million plant that will capture treated wastewater and ready it for redistribution. After being run through microfilters and undergoing reverse osmosis, slimy sewage is cleansed with peroxide and ultraviolet light. This intense process ensures that any pharmaceuticals and carcinogens are removed, and that the H2O stands up to drinking water regulations."

This is TEXAS! We don't have a drought, we just have a God-induced anti-flood. He loves us SO much he wants to show us that, unlike in the age of Noah when a flood was the only thing that would wash the world clean of the heathens that overran it, we are SO loved by our Lord that he has taken away all of the water in a demonstration of how safe we are here on our planet!
Climate change? That's for those Pussies in Seattle.

Only if your faucet has Gonorrhea. ;-)
