    You've got to be careful nowadays though, will all the DHMO getting into water:

    Dihydrogen Monoxide resources, information, research and more. Dihydrogen Monoxide is a dangerous chemical. Buy a Ban Dihydrogen Monoxide T-shirt.

        It's because bottled water tastes better than bottled gasoline

Tghing is, the built a golf course on top of the dunes anf the fertilizers are leaching through imo. The water leaves deposits on glass when it drys, which it never used to.
                            All ground water is going to have a certain amount of dissolved solids in it. Thus the calcite (hard water) deposites you see on your glass.

                              Make this a continent. And if you think our petrol tax is high, you should try the one in UK.

                                Here in the UK, it's cheaper for me to take the bus down to the store and back to buy bottled water than it is for me to fill up a car.
                                Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
