Drinking Water
- Share via
Why are you all so concerned about drinking filtered water?
The purified water you drank today has probably contained the bodies of dead creatures, reptiles and fish, sweat, urine, acid rain, motor oil, gasoline, rusty cans, various fishing worms, suntan lotion, fecal matter, boat paint and a long list of disgusting things that fell or were thrown into our reservoirs. You never knew or thought about them until right now.
No one is so naive that they believe new water is reinvented daily, are they? Filters and chemicals take care of it all.
Relax, don’t think . . . drink!
