[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4197646, member: 18222"] We apparently agree on that ... it's an [B]economic consideration.[/B] [COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)]I think we both read the CDC statement, [/COLOR][B][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)]"No safe blood lead level in children has been identified."[/COLOR][/B][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)] differently.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]In a perfect world, a level of 'zero' ppb is desired. In the real world, all water has 'some' lead in it. The EPA recommends, "[B]Lead concentrations in drinking water should be below the EPA action level of 15 parts per billion.[/B]"[/COLOR] Should it be lower ... no one seems to know. People tend to react emotionally when their kids come into play. There is usually distilled water available in the grocery stores. That's what we use for cooking and drinking in our house. The cost runs from $0.69 per gallon at WalMart to $1.59 at upscale grocery stores ... maybe more in big cities. [RIGHT][COLOR=#bfbfbf]. . .[/COLOR][/RIGHT] [/QUOTE]
