I paid my water and sewer bill yesterday so I thought it would be appropriate to honor the Deer Island Wasterwater Treatment Facility, located in the beautiful (and cleaner) Boston Harbor. Everything we do as a civilization depends on where we get our water and what we do with it afterwards. For the modest sum of six hundred bucks a year I get to participate in a distribution chain that stretches from resovoirs in central Mass. and ends at a discharge point at Deer Island. Billions of bacteria depend on me, and I won't let them down.
What's amazing is that there are a few holdouts who are critical of this project. Time should take care of them.
