If you drink the "wudder" in Philadelphia you should KNOW it's not good for you -- the yellow to brown color and foul taste are sufficient warning.

D.C. has the problem that a large percentage of water that enters their system simply vanishes. No surprise that there's stuff getting IN unaccountably as well.

Maybe Dasani is the safest. It's artificial mineral water -- they take water, distill it, then add in certain minerals. Sort of like what Bruce does, only on an industrial scale.

Me, I drink the Collegeville water. I know there's a few industrial contaminants in it, and I can certainly taste the chlorine and chloramines (doesn't burn your throat like in Philly though), but it'll serve.
