Winter of 90, I was a sophomore at chemistry, during a field trip to the refinery there were open green barrels filled with grains of Catiyoon Sodium resin. I grabbed a bunch and took them home with myself. By assembling some plastic cans and attaching a shower to a water hose and another container filled with the resins and inserting it in a large Polypipe I made a water purifier. I named it “Catiyoon”. Showed that to our principal, who is a knowledgeable chemist. Since then with his assistance I won some student awards in different student fairs but because I had too much stress I did not enjoy the appreciations and the awards. However, the glittering life of the “Catiyoon” was as short as a fly but that lasted me as long as the life of an elephant. Finally, everything settled down and no one blamed me for the completely wrong performance and application of the “Catiyoon”. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
