  • Test the water that your refrigerator makes ice out of.

    You will be making news stories for weeks.

  • What does it have in it?

  • Fluoride, bacteria, depression medication, Viagra... etc.

  • I knew that Fluoride was in the water and I still wonder why they put it in the water. I have heard on the NEWS that medication was found in some test around the US.

  • Yeah, the Nazi's put fluoride in the water that they gave the Jews while in the concentration camps.

    It is said to numb the mind.

    I drink it all the time and I am still pissed off.
