Around 1986 I lived near Red Rock, TX. As we basically lived in an oil field, and were furnished with a private well, the water was horrible. The sulphur smell would knock a buzzard off a shit wagon, and it was so slick that you could barely stand up in a bathtub. I filled an Igloo with our drinking water up in town, as there was a big private water supply business down there. No one ever complained about me filling up the Igloo.
Then we moved to Weir, where we had access to the private water system. It was more like $20 per month.
A lot of places have lousy water. And that part of Texas had as vile as water as I've ever experienced. I imagine it was always like that. After surveying Texas, I don't see how even a rattlesnake could make a living in a great portion of it.
It makes Missouri look like the Garden of Eden.
