Tap water is safe enough to drink in the west at least. > It's like the lion poisoning >the water around in order that the little animals come up to him! It would be if the mineral water manufacturers were pissing in the reservoirs. Only they don't need too. Consumers will buy their sometimes less potable water from bottles as a 'life style' choice. >I heard something like 40% of America's lakes and rivers are not >suitable for drinking and even swimming. So don't. What has this to do with drinking water ? > Whenever you go out on the >ocean you see the cans, plastic jugs, oil floating. So ? Never had a can come out the tap. > And nobody cares. Well most of us probably do, but some of us may be more able to keep the 'problem' in perspective than others. >Who cares about the issues that matter? Not a huge proportion of people, but possibly a growing one. > I'm afraid bad politics has >become good business... What ? You seem to be having a cause and effect problem. J/. -- John Beardmore
