![]() Nothing so fancy, just deep wells. N. Africa sits on top of a monsterous aquifer of "fossil water" that just needs to be tapped into. Drill wells, lots and lots of wells. Then lay pipes to distribute the water. Then raise crops with the water. Then sell the crops. Then pay for more wells to be drilled. Lather, rinse, repeat.... At every step, you also address another huge issue in Africa - unemployment. Between well-drillers, pipeline builders, farmers, etc., you just created a huge number of paying jobs and a self reinforcing system to develop Africa's infrastructure.

"It is difficult to say, but it is perhaps a case of four to five years," he told AFP, following a press conference in Stockholm ahead of receiving the prestigious prize next week.Nobel medicine laureate sees progress on AIDS vaccine - Yahoo! News Quote:
