Unless you watch your water melt from snow or pump it directly from the ground and flow right into your tap you are drinking water that someone or something else has used as a toilet.

<--- gets water that has been pumped from the ground 🙂 For most though it's a matter of how detached from it being used as toilet water it actually is. If the waters been evaporated and recollected it's much better then filtering it and sending it back out. If your going to desolinate though your better off just taking water from the ocean.

An ex-brother-in-law of mine used to work at a city water treatment plant. the used water would come in, filtered over and over again, throw in some flouride and chemicals, and VOILA! new tap water. He used to say that is was some of the cleanest water you could drink (before it hit the pipes).

Does it make you feel intelligent to state an obvious fact? Yes the water molecues themselves are the age of the solar system but that has almost nothing to do with what I said. Water that has gone through a precipitation cycle and most water extracted from the ground is free of organic contamination. But don't let me step out into reality interfere with your attempts to make yourself feel better by trying to insult people.:roll:

"most water extracted from the ground is free of organic contamination." Pretty broad statement, plus there are other types of contamination like chemical, heavy metal.

Depends on where you are as to how clean well water is, how deep the well, etc., etc. I would drink treated tap water any day over most well water (unless it has been analyzed recently).
