I have more than a passing familiarity with some of the water issues and personally know a man who was responsible for military health in one region. He said the claims were bogus.
There were times I had to fight hard agains the rumor mill because once one ignoramus makes a statement about the water then it is easy for the rumors to stay alive a long, long time.
Put it this way, I drank the water plumbed into my hooch and I also has access to the water test data. If it was unhealthy I'd be the first to stop drinking it!
Major leage BUMP!!!!!
