Your conclusion has been my conclusion, too. This study, though, does raise the possibility of using scientific method to look into what, if any, influence the “spiked” water has on the population. The parameters of such a study would be exceedingly difficult to define and the conclusions tentative at best.

Thanks

Yes I would on CL2 I got many an earful even on Night Shift.

On the WW Plants- I went to a School in San Antonio once at a WW Plant (CL2 & UV Final on discharge). The Guy's working there would go Fishing in the Effluent Creek and eat the fish...

I've E-Mailed 2 Operators that I worked with that are still active asking what they know/have heard on this.

I was in Texas during My years and TCEQ had Higher Standards than fedzilla's epa did.

Have you ever seen a Commie drink a glass of water?
On no account will a Commie ever drink water, and not without good reason.

...have you never wondered why I drink only distilled water, or rainwater, and only pure-grain alcohol?

You just don’t understand.

Any scientific facts that militate against liberal ideas do not exist. Thus, birth control will never be banned, no matter how many species it wipes out.

I don’t think ejaculatory frequency is the reason since the measure is motile sperm per cc of ejaculate.

Here is another; that’s a lot of fish fertilizer jumping out of the water! It worked for the Indians (Thank you Squanto!) Catch them, put them in a giant blender, spray the result on your field after you plant. Rinse your equipment thoroughly! And go shower! Business opportunity for the right person!

I got a bag full of shad one year and dropped them in my corn row before I planted! Had a good harvest.

Our problem is not in our chemicals but in our spirits

Romans 1:21-27

21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.

24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Maybe there actually is a scientific reason for the epidemic of male homosexuality.

There isn't an epidemic of male homosexuality. The numbers stand pretty firmly at 3%. But 3% of 320000000 is a larger number than 3% of 200000000, and the current number is louder and more aggressive than in the past, so we tend to think there are more of them than there are.

Nah, just a government mandated filter on the water line into every home, a filter that the home owner will have to purchase and pay to have installed by an installer who obtains a Federal license to install such filters. Routine annual replacement of said filter will also be done by the same licensed installers at the expense of the home owner.

The news lead will be : "Whether or not the home owner will be allowed to dig the hole that exposes the water line leading to their home is already a major bone of contention between Republicans and Democrats. The issue has been referred to committee and it now seems that Republicans have softened their stance and will settle for letting the free market work by allowing unlicensed companies, but not home owners, to dig the hole a position several key Democrats refuse to accept. Both parties have agreed that any damage done to any road or public surface in order to expose the portion of the water line will be borne by the home owner, though, and some analysts say reaching agreement on that point is a sign that there's a compromise in the works."

They'll compromise on a law that allows a home owner who purchases an appropriate insurance policy from an approved policy issuer to select an approved hole digging company otherwise they have to accept a hole dug by the installation companies.

Whether said hole must remain open and surround with an appropriate, approved, safety fence or can be refilled after installation of or replacement of said filter will be decided by OSHA once the specifications of the required F-35 filter (as the filter has been named) have been established by a joint industry/government panel of experts.

From what I’ve heard, asian carp don’t taste badly, but they are boney. One of the universities in my state has a program investigating the commercial possibilities available with this fish and I know of at least one company that is harvesting the fish, flash-freezing them and then shipping them (ironically) back to asia.

It filters out everything but virus’s.

No mention on their web site of pharmaceuticals.

I thought I read (don’t ask my morning brain where) that Berkey was going to test their filters for the pill. I hope I’m remembering correctly.

We have the white filters as well as the black filters which come with the system. They take out fluoride and arsenic so I would think they also take out pharmaceuticals.

I don’t see why not. Has to be better than what a lot of Chinese eat.

Harvesting; If you have a big flatbottom, and rig up a double bowspit to the port and starbord, with a net hung between them, just slowly motor up a river and they jump right into your net and boat. The hard part is the gutting, freezing, and shipping. Take the heads and offal and use that for your poultry farm or to make fish fertizer!
