You just have to marvel at the audacity of people these days. Its almost like we have been transported back to the wild west with snake oil salesmen traveling from one tumbleweed town to the next. The true irony is despite being more connected and having more access to communication and information the any people in history, basic ignorance seem all to common.  Enter WaterSeer and slickly marketed invention will all the hallmarks for being the right solution to serious problem, except its not and it can’t work as claimed. Remember today ‘scientists’ will try to claim global warming is caused by CO2 and we must turn off everything except in the third world where the dirtiest energy is used to stop it. This is likely how Berkeley is part of this sham, just write them a cheque and ride on their coat tails, or rather the coat tails of all the hard working  academics and students of decades past.

Oops, better retract some of this claim and have some damage control.

Or get TIME magazine to add some spin.

Hard to argue for the gadget when a bucket is ten times better. Its nice to know some people are paying attention.
