@wizardave - I think you would have some really good insights for round 12 of IFC (if you haven't already). I knew some engineers that worked of desalination plants but poor management and planning by the government just resulted in a lot of plants decommissioned without ever been used. Thanks for the kind comments about the origami, I am happy with being able to do a lot with very little, in keeping with my philosophy about Steemit in general :)
