So there’s nothing wrong with Henderson’s drinking water that a little rain, a little potassium and a little time won’t fix. Aside from regretting the wasted negotiating opportunity (“Gee, general, we’d be happy to take 20 million gallons a day of this stinky, foul-tasting water for, say, $1 million, but $3.455 million? Do algae cost extra?”), we’re fascinated by the use of a potassium compound in a water plant. Back in high school chemistry, the mix of water and potassium was an explosive no-no, and we confess to studying chemical supply catalogs for the nasty effects of potassium and sodium compounds (hint: add sugar, shake and heat, then watch out). But we never noticed one that merely turned the water pink. Chicago turns its river green for St. Patrick’s Day. Maybe we can make the drinking water pink for Valentine’s Day and promote Henderson as the City of Love. Any economic development is good economic development, right? Anyway, chat away.
