a low-rate loan from the state to do cesspool to septic conversion would at least be something: "This year, key lawmakers and clean-water advocates hope to ramp up progress with a low-interest loan program for the cesspools’ removal. It would be run by the state’s Green Infrastructure Authority, which typically helps finance solar and clean-energy projects." https://www.civilbeat.org/2026/02/hawaii-homeowners-need-more-options-get-rid-cesspools-2050/

better than nothing, which is what they're currently offering!

Time to clear some muddied waters with the stillness of attention. One of LaoZi's (Lao Tzu's) chapters has a line about a wise person able to see through (or clear?) dirtied waters with inaction. Maybe inaction is like the "silent sitting" (Okada-style?) of Shozo Tanaka. We just have to be still and wait for "the relevancies" to come together for clearer views of our situation. I might have to start with "#CessPool" as a more accurate name for "#ThinkTank" #ThinkTanks are #CessPools
