Looks like Roger Clemens should have gotten a better lawyer. He could've claimed he drank steroid tainted water when Barry Bonds was in town & took a dump.

I think it's just a scare tactic so everyone will buy bottled water at $1.00+ per bottle. I'm buying stock in the bottled water companies! Ray

 Ya, get an R/O system. I doubt that a trace element could sqeeze through the membrane osmosis filter. Only a pure water molecule can sqeeze through the filter, and that's alot smaller than a Guardia or Krypto-sparidian bug can get through. Even the "pure" Yosemite spring Sierra water has Krypto (deer shit) in it.

what he means is that the polutents in the water may be part of what's causing these neurological disorders. ADD and ADHD falls under the autism spectrum disorder, as well as PDD-NOS. Our environment is so pulleted and we're exposed to so many chemicals, depending on how well our bodies are suseptible to the toxins we're exposed to will determine how it'll effect our kids. Our bodies were not made to withstand so much toxicity. There are over 86,000 different chemicals in this country, not to mention 2 billion pounds of pesticides are sprayed on our food crops every year. It's just sad....

  No but the worlds termites are tied to global warming, along with all the rice farmers in Asia. They emit twice the amount Co2 that man emits by burning fossil fuels. (Science magazine Nov. 1982)
