Oh gawd. Of course they would have to complicate it and waste a bunch of the 
yield in the process, in order to justify spending that much money, right?  
Down the rabbit hole we go...

ROFLOL.

I've read a bit more about this project here and there, looks like what they 
want is some kind of chemical reaction that burns the feces and evaporates 
the urine.  Is it just me, or does it seem that this is a classic case of 
"the devil is in the details".

Bob Waldrop, who is not going to spend the $42 m until he gets the check and 
it clears the credit union

So the Gates Foundation can give Bob the $42 million and I am positive
he would find better uses for that.... (I wish!)

(Parenthetically - Hi, Bob, My husband and I now live in the woods in
northern coastal Maine having been driven from our home in Pennsylvania
by fracking and its associated horrors!  Very sad.  A beautiful,
beautiful natural area is being devastated, to say nothing of a lot of
lives devastated as well.  We were fortunate to be able to sell our home
and escape to the forests of Maine.  It's been a very, very rough year,
but we're OK now.  Cheers, Pat)
