Makes a lot of sense when you look at the facts. He states, "He told

It seems to be working. My 71 year old wife drinks a lot of water and
she is not getting pregnant. There can be no other explanation.

Sounds like hysteria and fake news to me. The supermarkets here are stocked
full of many brands of spring water, which is not treated with chlorine
or similar. It comes out of the ground and is bottled, nothing new.
Calling it raw water is just another marketing tactic. Similar to calling
some sugar products "raw". So, people pour that on their food and the
dumb ones think it's somehow suddenly healthy. In reality, it's not much
different than regular sugar. Sure, there are some trace elements and such
there, but so too are all the carbs of regular sugar.

Bottled water is probably one of the biggest scams in the United
States. It certainly is ridiculously profitable.

I remember when Consumer Reports rated NYC tap water as one of the
purest, best tasting sources of water in the nation, or something to
that effect.

I have been drinking the 'raw water' myself for around 40 years. It too
comes out of a well and just goes to the pipes in the house. No
filtering in the pipes. Must be ok as I am in very good health at 67.

I did live in a small town of about 30,000 for the first 25 years or so
and drank the processed water of the city.

It is very easy to remove the chlorine with a simple carbon filter.
Most refrigerators with water on the door have them now.
I get my water from a well and I suppose it is about as raw as you get
from the hose bibs (directly off the well) but I treat it myself
before I drink it. Still no chemicals tho.

It just tastes bad if you are not used to it. When I lived in DC I
never noticed but now "city water" tastes like the water in my pool.
That is not surprising because both contain about 3PPM cl.
In fact DC tap water test "ideal" with a 2 bottle pool test kit.
I agree storing it in the pipes is one reason why they put chlorine in
tap water even though most organisms do not thrive at over 20 PSI or
so. That is why you get a "boil water" notice when the pressure drops.
It is also because city water is "used" before you get it. There are a
few places that do not have anything up stream of the river where it
comes from but not many. If you are in New Orleans people have been
pooping and dumping chemicals in your water for 1300 miles up stream.
Maybe that is a good reason to drink bottled water there, assuming it
was bottled in a city with better water.

20 PSI doesn't do squat to "most organisms." You get boil water notices
because loss of pressure allows organisms to enter the potable water system.
Until that **** is cleared out the water is unsafe to drink.

I dunno what the concentrations are, bu swallowing some pool water at a public pool tastes 100 times stronger than tap water. Easiest way to notice the difference is to get some in your eye.

If they are using the recommended balance it should be exactly like
tap water 3 PPM. Usually it is a whacked pH that burns your eyes.

Depending on what the sulfur compound it is, you may be able to get

want that process to happen away from the house.

The New York Times: €˜Tap water? Youre drinking toilet water with birth
control drugs in them."

It seems to be working.Â* My 71 year old wife drinks a lot of water and
she is not getting pregnant.Â* There can be no other explanation.



Ha!


I'd think raw water would have fish **** in it too

Chlorine isn't harmful.

It just tastes bad if you are not used to it. When I lived in DC I
never noticed but now "city water" tastes like the water in my pool.
That is not surprising because both contain about 3PPM cl.
In fact DC tap water test "ideal" with a 2 bottle pool test kit.
I agree storing it in the pipes is one reason why they put chlorine in
tap water even though most organisms do not thrive at over 20 PSI or
so. That is why you get a "boil water" notice when the pressure drops.
It is also because city water is "used" before you get it. There are a
few places that do not have anything up stream of the river where it
comes from but not many. If you are in New Orleans people have been
pooping and dumping chemicals in your water for 1300 miles up stream.
Maybe that is a good reason to drink bottled water there, assuming it
was bottled in a city with better water.

I dunno what the concentrations are, bu swallowing some pool water at a public pool tastes 100 times stronger than tap water. Easiest way to notice the difference is to get some in your eye.

If they are using the recommended balance it should be exactly like
tap water 3 PPM. Usually it is a whacked pH that burns your eyes.

Or high levels of combined chlorine. Same thing with the smell.
A properly maintained pool should not smell of chlorine, except maybe very slightly and it should not burn your eyes.

In the UK, I've been to many public swimming pools, and they always smell strongly of chlorine. You can't be serious about it being the same as tap water, that ain't gonna kill germs!

They should both be ~3 PPM. You just seldom have 30,000-40,000 gallons
of tap water in the same spot with people splashing in it.

They should NOT be anywhere near as low as tapwater. Tapwater has to be low enough to drink, and it's also in clean pipes with nothing but water in them. Swimming pools have to deal with the constant influx of dirty bodies, and the water isn't going to be consumed (apart from an accidental mouthfull). They should be (and are) many times more concentrated than tap water.

I take it you do not have a pool and never actually ran one. I did
both and I have one in my back yard now. The recommended chlorine
level is 3PPM, same as tap water in the places I have tested it. I
said earlier, the water coming out of my tap in Washington DC tested
"ideal" on a pool test kit. They like to brag about their water
quality. It is right up there with New York City.

Just had a check, in England, tapwater is kept under 1ppm. Pool water is kept under 5ppm. So 5 times as much, not the same.

5 PPM for a pool is very high.
As a matter of fact I dropped a decimal point it is 0.3 ppm not 3
I did not see it on my tester.

This is from a UK web site

"For this reason combined chlorine residual should be kept to a
minimum, preferably below 0.2ppm"

From experience I can tell you that public swimming pools have WAY more chlorine than tap water. From smell, taste, stinging eyes etc.

They must just assume Brits don't bathe often.

Bathing doesn't remove bacteria.

Depends on the soap doesn't it?
Actually the biggest issue in commercial pools is suntan oil and other
things people smear on themselves. You end up with a scum line along
the tile.

Removing all bacteria is meant to be bad for you. But I wouldn't want them building up n the pool.

What about people ****ing?

Not as big a problem as people who not know how to wipe their ass. Pee
is essentially sterile but there are chemicals in it.
