Actually, Frank is right on the mark, the stuff in the water can have a very detrimental to the stuff between the ears! The list of contaminates common found in drinking water is EXTENSIVE and NOT ISOLATED to just a few remote areas in the US.

Not to belittle those with the serious condition of water on the brain, but that's a soggy noodle.

In regard to "something in the water", I just saw this while reading some news. This article shows a major source of toxic chemicals in our water. We continue to build, purchase, use and discard products that are choking the life out of us.

I use We and Us in a very broad sense, myself included. Some of us try to recycle. I know a lot of the HMT group reuses a lot of stuff. The recycling "business" is not yet up to the task of dealing with massive stream of waste we continue generate. Even if by some miracle we began today, and were somehow able to properly reuse/recycle the whole waste stream in a safe way, we still have all of the stuff already abandoned for generations all over the world left to deal with.

All the while we continue to invent, build, use and throw away, new difficult to recycle stuff everyday. A lot of it, in the name of Saving The Environment.
