Yeah it could definitely work. If it is hooked up in an older house with
metal pipes it would go over a SVC - Steel Virtual Circuit and in newer
houses with PVC pipe it would be a PVC - Plastic Virtual Circuit.

Also what does this say about all of us? Is this all we have to do late on a
Friday night. I guess I have been married too long.

It sends data via water pipes, not water. That could work. Water pipes are
ubiquitous. We could avoid tearing up roads to put in fiber-optic cabling.
And if it's in Holland, maybe they don't see the humor. On the other hand,
many people in Holland speak English. Also, many water pipes are actually
made of PVC, not metal. PVC probably doesn't conduct electricity or packets
very well. (That's poly vinyl chloride, not permanent virtual circuits!).

OK, I guess it was a joke! ;-)
