Not me! No way! I don't drink water any more. I drink dihydrogen oxide. It's much better for you, plus it's organic, too.

Leave it to people to come up with a solution to a problem they don’t have.

PT Barnum would be proud, and laughing his way to the bank of the inanity of things like bottled water and “Organic” food.

Remember the machines that used to be sold that would charge the air in your home with negative ions?

Hi, BunnySlippers, it's been awhile! Still love your name.

Btw, Slate, "ionized water" is not new.

I have a client that I used to meet with once a month during the dinner hour. Had to quit because we couldn’t agree on a restaurant which had exactly the kind of food she thought she needed to survive. She will not eat anything that is not only organically grown but gluten, carbohydrate, fat, salt, sodium, sugar, and who knows what else free. Drank bottled water without ice cubes or lemon because she wasn’t sure how/where the lemon had been grown, whether it had been properly washed and, of course, the ice cubes were probably made with water which wasn’t filtered.

People like her just wear me out.

LOL!

Reminds me of a friend who was buying the wonders of “Oxygenated Water” for the health effects of getting more oxygen into your body.

$12 bucks for 3 ounces. Sohhhhh Stoopit!

I told her she could buy club soda for $.50 cents and there’s plenty of O2 in that.
