Isn't it just unbelievable how many people pay for bottled water, even some so-called environmentally conscious folks, who must have some kind of nearly superhuman ability to rationalize wasting all that plastic. It kind of boggles my mind.
I also prefer to know exactly where my water came from and who was purifying it.
