Here's an idea for a contest that I think would be interesting, and perhaps even useful. I'd like to see a contest where people design, build and implement a solar-powered desalination machine.
I'd set the rules something like this:
1.) Cannot be more than one square yard in area and no more than two feet tall.
2.) Must operate with (only) solar power and gravity.
3.) The person or team that produces the most clean water from one gallon of saltwater (in a specific period of time) is the winner.
What do you people think? Given the fact that DEFCON is in the Mohave Desert, this sounds like an appropriate contest.
