Thanks -- answered all of my questions. I like the image of thinking that in an ideal situation everyone's water would be stored 10 feet above their house. Since it can't there's extra energy in the system that can be harvested. Would work not only in hilly places like Portland but in any system with elevation changes. Love it.
