I'm supposed to be doing a wireless irrigation control system geared 
toward farmers in a few months.  The guy who wants it has a similar 
attitute - apparently farmers spend a HUGE amount of time and money on 
irrigation control, and what they do doesn't make a lot of sense (to him).

Wireless seems important for my case because running cables is a 
nightmare on a farm.  And I'm guessing the kind of valves used in 
farming irrigation systems are probably incompatible with garden-hose 
systems, just because that would be too simple.  :)  But I'll let you 
know how it goes.
