special "fog catcher" machines that condense the water vapors out of the "marine layer"
Should be "smog layer". Granted, we are not in the late 1960-es, the air quality has improved. It still contains quite a bit of nitric acid, H2SO3, hydrocarbons, soot and other wonders. This is valid even for what is brought from the ocean too as a lot of that was taken there just 3-4 hours ago by the evening breeze.
I would not drink that even if they PAID me. Granted, I am probably not the target audience...
