I will leave that to the younger crowd. I'm gonna cash in while I can still enjoy life. I hope. ;)
Re: Your tag line ... (Not all that needs to be done, needs to be done by the government.)
Allow me to bore you with the following letter I sent a neighbor who is trying to get our area to agree to city water.
" XXXXX & XXXXX XXX XXXXX
XXXX S. Sxxxxx Terrace
Inverness, FL 34450
September 9, 2005
Dear XXXXX:
Thank you for your letter of September 9, 2005 and with reference to your well water and whether we would like to have city water.
Firstly, our answer is absolutely not!
Secondly, do you have your water (well) tested annually? Do you have a system for your well that insures it being safe and potable for your consumption?
The assumption that government is the answer to all our problems is an erroneous one.
Should you have been reading the local news articles about the problems with ”city” water, you may have noticed that there is trouble in paradise.
As far as the costs you refer to, would it surprise you to know that our “city” water, in Seminole FL, had as much chlorine in it as did our swimming pool?
Rhoda and I are quite satisfied with out well, our well treatment system, and the “costs” are much less than government can possibly supply it for.
You are hereby invited to our home, for a sample of what really good, home-purified water tastes and looks like.
Sincerely,
XXXXXXX xxx XXXXX XXXXX
She hasn't spoken to me since! ;)
