Reddit mentions of The Human Experiment: Two Years and Twenty Minutes Inside Biosphere 2

They never used CO2 scrubbers, and they never imported food. They didn't even get that divided. Just into two groups, four on each side. Jane Poynter, one of the original biospherians, even married another biospherian.

Source: The Human Experiment: Two Years and Twenty Minutes Inside Biosphere 2, I spent week on the grounds last July studying soils in the Biosphere 2. Even saw Jane do a talk about her experiences in it. Real nice lady, bit erratic though.

No, they didn't order fucking pizza. That came from reports of people seeing Biosphere engineers, who were not in the experiment, at the nearby pizza joint.

This'll get downvoted to hell, but I'll defend that place to the death.

Probably a lot of readers of /r/water have read Cadillac Desert.

I own a copy of, and have made two false starts reading, The King Of California as recommend by the anonymous author of the blog On The Public Record.

I highly recommend A Great Aridness, a worthy heir to Cadillac Desert.

Also on my to-read list is Rising Tide. I would like to find a book that does for the Great Lakes what Marc Reisner did for water in the American West with his book Cadillac Desert.

A few things I've read this year that have little to do with water:

• The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History
  
• The Future of the Mind: The Scientific Quest to Understand, Enhance, and Empower the Mind
  
• The Human Experiment: Two Years and Twenty Minutes Inside Biosphere 2
  
• The Second Machine Age: Work, Progress, and Prosperity in a Time of Brilliant Technologies
  
• Citizenville: How to Take the Town Square Digital and Reinvent Government
