This has got to be the most impressive undertaking I've seen yet. How
imaginative!
If I had the time, I'd love to do this. But in the amount of time it
would take me to come back and water my plant, I could water a hundred
at the GH.
If anyone has not gone to this site, and taken the tour, DO IT! The
tour expalins it, and I doubt you could figure this out without the
tour.
