1. unfortuneatly a year ago in november, my daughter had a premature baby. they had to take him like 7 weeks early cuz she didn't have enuf or any embriotic fluid to sustain him full term. so the baby,which is doing awsome now, pulled thru just fine.she wanted to breastfeed the baby. but, the drs at the nicu (neonatal intensive care unit) advised her to use this substitute formula cuz it was richer and more vitamin enhanced powder...she suggested bottled water. the drs told her it would be better 4 the baby (luke) if she used distilled water cuz using bottled "spring water" is the same as using tap water. no matter what brand.

2. my daughters uncle,(her dads brother) is vp of a bottle making company, they make various bottles for gatoraide,and some other top quality "bottled water" deer park, gladden companies. so he was asked to start up a company in las vegas, making the same bottles. when we went out to vegas for a visit, he was busting my kid about drinking "bottled" water. he told her it is the same as tap water. he said he visits other large companies, they go to lunch, play golf, whatever. he was told that 98% of bottled water companies use ordinary tap water.he just relocated down to jacksonville,fl. to run a different company for them doing the same thing.

3. a very good friend of mine, who i have spoken to about this on various occasions, who works for the local water company, also told me about 100% of all "bottled spring water" is just ordinary tap water. we can get proof of this because the "envirnmentally friendly" water that starbucks pushes as that echos water promises to donate 10 cents from every bottle to a 10million dollar fund raising project to get water to asia, latin america and africa. echos also signed a five year, ten million dollar contract with pepsi cola, who is depleting water from all over the world. the label states that it comes from a spring in tom hicken, pa. which is a hop skip and a jump away from me.let me tell you i have hunted, fished,swam in tom hicken pa, all my life...believe me the only industry out there is a garbage dump, and a gas station.if you dont beleive me do a google earth search to find thier elusive spring.good luck!
WHOAAAA!!!!!!!!!! slow down here. lets back this up just a little bit. i was just joking. sayin that no matter what the source you cant believe everything that you read.(come on dewy defeats truman its a classic) was even agreeing with you.
