Selling Kansas City Smart Sewer Hype

Here's trade mag tech talk celebration regarding the decaying Kansas City underground labyrinth of pipes which still demand BILLIONS worth of repair by EPA mandate . . . Checkit:

The Rise of the Intelligent Sewer

By 2010, Kansas City's underground infrastructure was faced with a challenge. Its sewer systems were outdated-the 1,060 miles of pipe in the combined sewer system dated back to 1857, which, to put in perspective, is four years prior to the start of the Civil War.

  1. Overheard at City Hall.
    We got no money for things like stinky sewers, we have toy trains to build.

    A brand new shiny anything won't fix anything if the infrastructure it is on or in is failing, falling apart or wore the hell out. A busted down wore out barely running old car isn't going to be fixed just because it gets a new shiny coat of paint on it.

  2. It says a lot about the quality of this author when he claims in his first paragraph that the Kansas City Government under Mayor Milton J. Payne in 1857 had the foresight to install 1,060 miles of sewer pipe to take care of future growth.

    Either that or the author doesn't read the crap he spews out either!

  4. The current city government is focused on bangles, nuts and bolts do not interest them. Like expensive wheels and low profile tires on a 78 Cordoba. Sly is a single minded idiot.
