WTF, Michigan? Where is the help for these people? Saw a Rachel Maddow piece on this tonight and people can't get a reliable supply of drinking water in the city of Flint.

Sorry, if you want to risk a visit from some Internet crazy you can. I'll try to avoid. I've seen some crazy here and there, too.

You spend the money, or you turn off the water and tell everyone to go away, I guess. But you don't ignore a lead poisoning thing.

Understood. That is new thought that is still on trial.

Old thought has a simple solution and I stand behind it. We should live closer to each other. Living close requires fewer pipes and reduced maintenance costs. An added benefit might be that we hang out together instead of on the internet.

Maybe we should live closer to each other but we don't. Let's suppose, however, that we were to work on that. It'll take time, lots of time. What do we drink in the meantime?

That would not do much good in my case - our water come from 300 feet under the front lawn and the sewage all gets filtered via the back forty.

There was a crazy who use to post (not for long) here. Claimed he had exceptional internet skills.
