I LOL
at how Chicago dumps their treated sewage in the same lake
they take their drinking water from.

Well, laughingboy, water discharged from a properly designed
and operated waste treatment plant is cleaner than the water
drawn out of many open lakes in the United States. Chicago's
Metropolitan Sanitary District (MSD) is such a waste treatment
operation.

In fact, MSD could bottle it, sell it to you, and you'd never
know. If you want pure virgin water you need to get hydrogen
and oxygen and combine them by burning.
