I just know that my town did the brilliant "lets add fluoride to our water" idea,
so I definitely avoid it. Hey lets poison people!
It seems to be almost an insult to offer someone a glass of water from the faucet anymore. I can't remember the last time I've had water from a fountain or faucet. When people come to the house or my office, we have bottled water for them. I'm of the opinion that tap water is perfectly fine and that's about all bottled water is anyway. I guess it's just convenient in many ways to go with the bottled brands. So, do you drink water fro the faucet? If not, do you believe it's unsafe or the bottled water offers something better?
Situational...
RO/Filtered water:
- Coffee
- Ice for drinks
- water goblet & travel glass/bottle
Tap water:
- Cook with
- Brush teeth
- Quick drink in the night or popping a Tylenol
- Ice for filling coolers/etc.
At least three of these a day, out of the tap.
It's your fault;

Thank you!
Straight from the Mars Hill Ditch. And yes, there really is a waterway called the Mars Hill Ditch.I have minor issues with Indy water on the SW side. I still drink it, but its pretty damn hard. Not that I care enough to waste the $$ on a softener. I can deal with the crust.
Why is there a doodie in your water bottle?
Replacement filters are a little spendy. Any idea how long they last? I'm sure it would still pay for itself vs buying bottles.
I cannot speak for others in my area, but the water that comes from my faucet strongly resembles what you’d find the pool at the YMCA, what with the heavy dose of bromine or whatever it is they add to it. It is a shame, I remember the water being just fine a long while back, but now it is just not something I like to drink short of making tea or something to mask the flavor pool water.
Honestly, I’m rather irate that we raised sales taxes to build a new football stadium that will benefit me none at all, but I have to consider getting a reverse-osmosis rig if I’d like to have anything I’d considered servable. Respectable water > football, if you ask me.
It is easy to forget, though, that it doesn’t have to be this way. I was out to Chicago a while back and drank the tap, it was wonderful; it tasted precisely like water ought to taste, and it smelled like water ought to smell.
Am I the only one connected to the Indianapolis water supply that cannot stand the stuff?
I mean, it is better than nothing, don’t get me wrong; but as far as municipal water systems go, I feel like I’m getting screwed.
