I like the scooters but they could have fender skirts.

Similar to the movie car in Permalink #793, via Torchinsky, here's the [Winfield-built] Dekard Sedan from Blade Runner. It's a Be-dull.

Mist Showers: Sustainable Decadence?
https://www.lowtechmagazine.com/2019...decadence.html

Quote:

The Canadian experiments in the 1970s resulted in such a portable mist shower. The water was stored in a Volkswagen window washing reservoir connected to a bicycle pump to pressurize the water. The 2.5 litres of water were pressurized with about twenty strokes of the bicycle pump. [7] In short, if we switch to mist, the infrastructure that made the modern shower possible can be scaled down and simplified, to such an extent that the bathroom could be taken off-grid and off-pipe even in an urban context, bringing further reductions in the use of water and energy.

Have you tried to find such a bottle lately? Pricey and hard to find, especially for a super bug. Metal drink bottle with fittings perhaps.
