Title: How I Washed My Bus
Post by: Buzz on March 04, 2021, 04:48:48 PM
Well, there's no way I can fit my bus down my narrow street but I really wanted to get some of that heavy winter crust off of it. Then it occurred to me that a piece of apparatus that is part of the years-long sewer project going on here in New Dorp Beach would come in handy,
It's a big container into which ground water is pumped and filtered, which then goes into a storm sewer and out to the ocean. This is to remove water to allow them to work and pour concrete below grade.
I just scooped a couple of buckets of water out of it, got a brush and got the job done in a few minutes. I learned from our bus wash that [apparently] you don't need soap. ;D
There's something relaxing ... almost mesmerizing ... about watching this thing work.

Huh? I don't get what you're saying. The water I took from the container was crystal clear. I didn't dump anything back into the container. What I washed the bus with fell to the street ... no different than when it rains or washing your car in your driveway.
(Only used two 1/2 filled buckets, total. They're not "purifying" the water ... merely filtering the mud and sediment before it goes into the ocean.)

Let me understand this right. You took clean crystal clear water that was filtered so it doesn't pollute the ocean and got it muddy (dirty) and dump it into a sewer, which went right into the bay (ocean as you said). Now you think you did something good! :snicker: You Polluted the bay with your mud and emissions particles that was stuck on your bus into the bay. Great Job! Maybe you should run for Mayor! ;D :crazy:
