and a year later, bottled water is still so popular. I never did understand it.

I drink tap water, I have my whole life, and I am not concerned. In fact, I would bet that the tap water is safer today than it was when I was a kid, and there is no going back and changing the past. The only time that I will have bottled water is when I am at a festival or some place where there is no other source of water. I even fill reusable bottled at home for hiking or other outdoor activities.
