"The pipe makes civilization possible"
August 12, 2009
One might not usually turn to
Esquire magazine for thoughts about sewage treatment, but a recent issue included an excellent
day-in-the-life story about a plumber that probes deeper than just a superficial "homage to the working man" and really makes some valuable connections between the work that people in the water and wastewater industries do and how it really does make civilization possible. Decidedly worthwhile reading for anyone, whether inside or outside the civil-works industry.
