====Day 1- The raft that has left has taken four people and ¾ of the water bottles leaving us with 32 Poland Spring bottles of water. According to survivaltopic’s computer chart, we have realized that we have approximately 11 days in 90 degree temperatures. The website said that 3.79 liters of water will give you 10.5 days to live so by using cross-multiplication with 4 liters(which is what we start with) we came to the answer of 11.08 days to live(http://www.survivaltopics.com/survival/how-long-can-you-survive-without-water/).==== _

====Day 2- We are planning to use a pipette as our first experiment to make pure water out of the muck that it is now. Our goal of the pipette is to pick up all of the gooey oil substances that are floating at the top of the liquid. After we removed the oil substance, the liquid began to look like regular water excluding the brown color besides the transparency that is the norm to water.====

====Day 4- Our group has decided to filter the yellow liquid again, thinking that maybe some of the yellow coloring will be filtered out of the water. This has not really brought any results as the liquid has stayed the same yellow liquid. We have now decided to use rocks through the filter that may pick up some of the extra dirt. Again, the rocks have not changed the water at all. We are now trying to pour the water through a charcoal filter which we feel will take out the yellow color. The water has now turned clear, miraculously, by the charcoal. ==== -- Day 5- Today, we are going to use an apparatus that will take all of the clear water from its liquid form, transfer it to steam and then cool it down back into liquid state to seperate the pure water from the dirty and mucky fluid. The clean water is on the left and right side whilst the dirty and excess fluids are in the middle
