    Scientists find at least SIX toxins like arsenic and uranium
    in systems used by 95% of the US population

    . . .

    Yep, they "found" those.

    Thing is, modern techniques are sensitive kind of
    down to the ATOM and "unsafe" is a POLITICAL criteria.

    Review the water the rest of the world is drinking
    and US water looks crystal clear. Indeed arsenic
    poisoning from groundwater is a HUGE problem in
    much of the world - and I do mean "poisoning", not
    just "trace presence". Remember when all those lefty
    "volunteer" groups and the UN were really into
    drilling water wells in the 3rd world ? GUESS what
    was down there ....

    In the USA (there are maps) the WORST spot seems to
    be northeastern Arizona into northwestern New Mexico.
    This is apparently a combined figure, arsenic plus
    uranium plus a few lesser factors. The largest AND
    worst seem to be around Santa Fe NM and another
    area around Mission SD (Uranium mining ? ICBM sites ?
    Dumping shit on the Rez ?)
