If your system was 100% stainless steel and some way could keep all bugs out, the slow way by the sun would work fine other than, with no REAL STEAM HEAT, Ya can bet bacteria would have a hay day in that nice warm water...so it would be mineral free, but probably loaded with living microscopic creatures.

With no heat/steam there would be nothing stopping air born bacteria entering into this type of system.

MAN must be capable of building a fire and once he has fire, he can do many miraculous things to improve his daily life.

I have a few none electric water distillers stuffed away and hopefully they will never ever be required.......but if that day happens, I can mak fire, I can boil water and collect steam and not a bad idea for everyone to know they can do such a thing when forced to.

99% of what we fear the most never happens........the greatest enemies humans have, are in fact...bad people.

Bad people are enemy number one and always will be, they will forever be "predators". BEYOND bad people, earth is truly a paradise!
