I'm working on a project where we are considering rainwater collection and use for irrigation. Is anyone aware of a good designer/installer familiar with commercial installation in the NC, SC, or VA areas?

Thanks,

Joel

I'll be able to tell you if they're any good in a few weeks. We're talking to them now, and I think they're nationwide.

I was considering the practicality/feasibility of integrating a man-made koi pond/waterfall design with a rainwater/storage collection system. Thinking about the pond/aquatic plants acting as part of the cleansing/filtration unit? Small solar PV panel could power the circulator/filter/waterfall pump. Input appreciated.

This guy - Bird and Company is spamming all the forums trying to discourage those like us who have new ideas and visions.

They cannot seem to make any intelligent comments in our subjects except bomb all the posts with false claims, insults and childish games.

Why can't this guy leave other people alone?

In effect, they are requesting the slaughter of intellectual thought. Such wasting criticism will not diminish or silence some of the greatest achievements in new architectural theory, in the linguistics of architectural thought, in the development of the idea of concept in architecture, in the studies on deconstruction architecture and in the propositions for the structures of the future, among many other architectural community areas benefiting. You cannot stand to have your intellect challenged by individuals who are growing in stature of intellectual achievement, so you would rather bomb all their technical posts with irrational accusations, acting like a community police and sticking you nose into issues you have no desire to discuss, but rather harass with ill founded accusations.

Some of the greatest ideas, theories and developments on this forum are being discussed in an intelligent manner, and you keep calling it commercial crap ? Who do you think you are ?

I am all about ideas, vision and projecting this vision into our architecture in a unique way. This is not commercial crap.

I am all about new architectural theory.

This is not commercial crap.

I am all about the structures of the future.

This is not commercial crap.

I am all about supporting pc.

This is not commercial crap.

I am all about supporting George.

This is not commercial crap.
