The story Gloriana's talking about is right here.
" SOLAR FLAIR "
from gloriana casey
Old Al Jolson, he made his fame
by singing "Sonny Boy."
Now Cal Tech has a winner too
in Solar Toilet joy!
A contest ---Gates Foundation made
inventions do abound.
For science to the rescue then
with toilet of renown!
The winning toilet of top 3
$100,000 prize,
from Michael Hoffman of Cal Tech;
ingenious this prize!
These solar panels will power up
electrochemically.
First hydrogen is made and then
chlorine--magically!
This oxidizes urine salts
to flush the toilet clean.
Plus hydrogen, it can be used
for that electric dream!
The solid stuff that then remains
we all know as that poo,
disinfected as second use
for fertilizer too.
For round the world people live
with sanitation bleak.
Electric insight added too
to power up the street.
A solar toilet but much more
all planet life will gain.
You are the newest SUN-ny Boy.
SOLAR Hoffman, your new name!
