Deborah reminded us about the Progressive Dinner
Of course Jim needs no introduction, but he was anyway
Jim gave us a fascinating journey through his invention of the domestic wastewater treatment plant from the inner workings of our own bodies to the breakdown of what is produced by bacteria
Starting with his electrical engineering background, rock moving to foundations at Sarina Beach, and then dealings with politicians including Russ Hinze and Mike Ahern
There were two years of experiments, and you can drink to the result with the result, but there was no legislation in the Building Code to have them approved
We weren't told who provided the sample for this experiment

There was interest from the NT Government and Brunei, Indonesia, Greece & Italy
Their Balinese company has been going for 21 years
Jim was thanked for his talk
