Quite well-baked, I'm afraid. |

I like this idea quite a lot, and I've never heard it described before. Beauxeault: please provide a link if you can find one. Peter: I agree it's elegantly stated, but what does all-your-base mean? |
|
| |
It's a reference to the 'translated-not-extremely-well-from-Japanese' feel of the syntax, taken from the 'Zero-Wing- video game. Search on 'all your base' for further info.
It's almost haiku-esque. I like it. Even though it's baked, I vote 'yay' for the prose. |

kaana, this would be surreal: as if rain were running from the eaves on a hot sunny day. Like the others, I enjoy the expressiveness of your idea. Am I correct in assuming that English is not your cradle language? |
|
| |
Nice first idea. Welcome to the Halfbakery! |
|
| |
From the link, it seems to me that Californians do not pay the full economic cost of their water. |

Cute idea! If I build a house where I need a roof cooling, I will probably use the idea. Just because it looks so nice. It's so romantic... Probably I will also write somewhere on the roof: |

ever heard about passive architecture & evaporative cooling (more than fully baked concepts)? |
|
| |
Gently cool the summer heat. |

In the 1998 Israel jubillee expo we were shown an invention of
a greenhous that has water running on the roof and walls
creating a virtual waterfall all day round. I was not able to
find a trace of this idea since. |
|
| |
Nice idea. One point: even if the water were recirculated,
you'd lose quite a lot to evaporation. |
|
| |
Evaporative cooling is how it works... |
|
| |
The Shrine of the Book <link> has a water-jet (fountain) system which doubles as a cooling device. |
