It is a short walk to the edge of knowledge. (knowledge = know + ledge; ledge = l + edge) If you haven't found the edge, you haven't walked very far. Power is knowing where the edge is.

@AEESP2022_WashU @aguaclarah2o launches our parametric design tool https://t.co/DeLWrK5atl for drinking water treatment plants.

@M_lindmark @JoeBrownUNC We should chat. Will you be at AEESP?

[AguaClara Reach @aguaclarah2o]

They talked about how cool it is using @Onshape to learn about water treatment design and celebrated the new format of 50% lecture and then the balance of the time in the AguaClara Reach Gather office where students work in teams.

@postingtwink I would suggest the units should be watts. This is the power requirement per person. We all need to think of our power requirements for our way of living.

Clare is the TA for the ‘Safe Water on Tap’ course that is taught by @monroews and Patrick Sours at OSU. She graduated in '18 from @Cornell with her B.S. in Bio. Eng. and M.Eng. in Envir. Eng.. Clare was on the ACC team for several semesters and worked on the textbook effort.

It’s been a little over a week since the start of the ‘Safe Water on Tap’ course, taught by @monroews and Patrick Sours at @OhioState. This problem-centered design course focuses on major water quality challenges both nationally and internationally.

[AguaClara Reach @aguaclarah2o]

Happy new year from us at AguaClara Reach to you! Thank you for another year of your support in safe water on tap.

The Holy Family is still among us here and now, in the faces of the refugee, the immigrant, the oppressed, the sick and poor. “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me." Matthew 25:35, Merry Christmas.

In @CommonPrayer today we remember the El Mozote massacre in El Salvador. About a thousand people were killed and hundreds more were injured and tortured. It happened exactly 40 years ago.

Please consider joining the campaign and help us reach our goals and advance our work in supporting sustainable drinking water for all!

Imagine if you could design a 4 passenger airplane by typing "designAirplane(N_passengers = 4)". That is the AguaClara Reach dream except we do it with municipal water treatment plants (Q = 4 L/s). https://t.co/rBYjL3AfDo
