In my science test, I had a question worth a lot of points, and I wasn't too sure of my answer. The question was this: If you are alone with a friend on a raft in the middle of the ocean and you have no food or water, drinking the sea water would cause dehydration. How can you get normal water?
I thought of different answers like: Drinking your piss, but that wouldn't work because your piss is salty as well.
So, I finally wrote this. I would take off my shirt and use it as a bowl and put water inside it so it filters the salt and i can drink the water. Now that I think of it, I'm not too sure this could be the answer because I'm not sure a shirt can filter the salt out of water.
Does anyone have any ideas? Basically, you just have yourself, and the raft. Nothing else. I thought that it's obvious you should be wearing clothes though, so I said you could use your shirt.
