    That had better be a Yes. I think everyone needs to get laid. Often.

    I tried some 30 year old Pepsi, and it was crap, it would have gagged a maggot. My nephew had saved some commemorative Pepsi, from the Bucs,and it was puke.

    I know that some of you guys have drunk well water, and drunk out of mountain streams. I did that in WV, and the difference between that and city water can’t be put into words.

    The brooks that are up in the highlands, of McDowell County, WV, have water that taste better than soda pop in ways. I just wanted to mention that.

    I haven’t drunk any water out in the Rockies, but I have seen some of creeks, and the water was rushing. I was outside of SLC. , and there was a fast moving creek that I walked by, and it was deep. Full of good water.

    I am making a contrast between what God provided, and canned water. Yes, I get the idea, canned water is better than no water.

    As I said before, I do believe the water was distilled, it may have been deionized also.

    I just don't remember the details, had the specs from the Natick Labs 30 years ago along with LT foodstuffs.

    I had some of it back in the early 70's when they removed all the CD packages from the schools and municipal buildings.

    Giardia, had a friend that was in SF, drank from a stream in Colorado, caught it, they tried to clean it out with Flagel,

    almost killed him with the treatment, died from it two years ago,

    His name was SFC Thomas Kapp, 10th SF Airborne SOTIC.

    Any SF (and I don't mean the candy caner's) in here will know the name from SF sniper school at Ft. Devens.
