Bad Water

Today, I feel somewhat poisoned by the government. I grew up being told that drinking lots of water is good for me. Still, it's no surprise that there are chemicals and hormones in our drinking water. There is also some evidence that fluoride, also added to water, isn't necessarily good for your teeth. And it's common knowledge by now that bottled water is not a green choice, and may also contain hormones. Even though it's hard to know what sources are credible these days, all this truly disheartens me. Surely we're an advanced enough society to have moved past these problems decades ago. Ugh.

And I gotta throw in the obligatory remark that in other places in the world there is no clean water.
