Back in the 60's and early 70's, Hollywood produced an explosion of sci-fi movies and outer space television shows that delivered very entertaining scripts featuring inventions of our future times. Flash forward forty years and those of us now not willing to admit to watching such tv fodder for fear of aging ourselves, now get the pleasure of seeing old sci-fi ideas actually come into manifestation. One particular 1972 movie, 'Silent Running' with Bruce Dern says it all; as in the movie plot, he and three robots, Huey, Dewey and Louie prance about on a floating biosphere in space. Everything is self sustaining in the floating domes and in a heart-wrenching ending move, Freeman Lowell, the last remaining astronaut kills himself in order to save the last living forest. One remaining robot, Dewey floats away in space tending to the remaining plants. One can't help but wonder if movies such as that didn't have a heavy hand in turning the minds of baby boomers back toward Save-The-Earth endeavors; as we now witness in today's times, the creation and implementation of 'living machine systems' in the corporate world. What are THEY, one might ask? A corporate living machine system can look like a lush tropical garden area in a plush office or hotel lobby and yet beneath the beautiful foliage, lies a self sufficient wastewater system that produces clean water. These patented water technologies may have once been just the ideological means to which a script writer made his millions, but a few decades later, they've actually become REAL and WORKING inventions! With so many floods, water main breaks, oil spills and tsunamis of the past five years, our water concerns are indeed somewhat of a pressing matter. Luckily baby boomer scientists, now all grown up and yet still tinkering, can be proud that their imaginations ran away from them for just a bit. Because now what we have for the first time in history, are viable solutions for an infrastructure that has desperately needed water treatment and safe water management ideas. We at Aquaverve shall continue in our unique water cooler methodology for helping society keep the safe water flowing and along with the corporate powers that be; in simpatico, may we as a collective, mastermind even greater future water technologies.

Living Machines Via Water Technology!
