This waiter should be identified and shot, well, at least reprimanded for
spreading rumors.  I suppose in any disaster situation, it is almost
inevitable that people cannot relay news without adding some colorful
exaggeration.  I wonder what the waiter thought his kitchen was using to
cook and wash?  Has the PieWorks added Evian to their list of toppings?

Durham water and sewage treatment plants have been either on power or
generator continuously since Fran hit.  There are no problems with Durham
water.  Orange County is not so lucky, and people there are being asked to
conserve water and boil it before drinking for the time being.
