“One neednt be very bright to understand bell curves. You are revealing more than you care to.”
Yes, it certainly does reveal something, like: apparently my humor is too subtle for your type of genius.
Ok, so you have 900 gallons of runoff - let’s assume the various water authorities/EPA lets you go with your plan.
Even if you just have a bath on Saturday night (whether you need it, or not) - you need a lot of storage. If you want to survive the drought years - you need a lot more storage.
The average family of 4 uses about an acre-foot of water. Lets assume that you can do with 1/4 of that. That still is more than 80,000 gallons a year. that’s about 90 - 900 gallon containers. If you are careful, maybe you can go with half again as much as that.
Even if you go to every-other Saturday night baths, you’ll still need a lot of storage.
Now you know why people dig wells.
