Ya, that's no fun. But it sure wouldn't be at all if you got a sip of that stuff!!   It is the lack of Christianity that has brought us where we are. Not a lack of churches or religious forms but of the real thing in our hearts. LIW.....Words From a Fearless Heart |

| I know....I'm wondering how long the bacteria has been in the water undetected. I thought I was heat-sick today, but maybe I'm a little under the weather from the water. |

| Well, just remember to let it cool before you drink it.  |

Unless you are making tea. Then it works out pretty well. Any tea drinkers here? I love Lapsang Soushong. Its a dark woody smoky flavored tea. Dee-lish-ous!!  "Willie, were you or were you not looking at the corsett ads in the catalogue?" - Nels  |

| Never tried Lapsang Soushong, Joe. I like Earl Grey and Darjeeling. |

| I do the same thing, Savannah, on the rare occasion we've had to boil water. I don't want to take a chance with the tap water either under those circumstances and go with the bottled. |

It sounds therapetic. And you can't Gomer me for that... you know why. I haven't had any tea for quite a while, but this thread is making me want some. |

| It once happened in Argentina some 15 years ago. But happily nothing too dramatic occured and there were not any fatal victims to complain. Don't worry... Vanesa. |

That's the first thing I thought Savannah.  Scary stuff....I hope this gets resolved soon! Nice that they're giving out bottled water though---I can only imagine how much of that they'll be needing!! |

No official word yet, though.
That's very reassuring. I think the last time we had to boil water was during that huge power outage in the north eastern part of the country. However many years ago that was. |
