First of all, does it seem strange to you that someone comes on the forum to just discuss this one thing in particular the very first post. There are 30 answers to his post, some very informative, yet not one response from the guy who originally posted it. And he has just one post. Seems like someone's shoveling sh*t or stirring the pot, or he'd have been back on and responded at least once on the thread that he started in the first place.

You never know - this administration has been paying people to "stir the pot" in comment sections and forums since they got in office, so anything's possible. They know they cannot win on merit, so they have to resort to LIES, & CHEATING to keep the party in power. But I digress.

The EPA can pass all the laws it wants - nothing is gonna change here, come hell or high water. Like taxes, that I can guarantee. ;)

I'm biting my tongue saying this but the issue came to light in Maryland due to water well contamination in Gambrils, Maryland next to a BG&E ash disposal site. It was a combination I believe fly ash and bottom ash. Also known as CCB's. Don't ask me how I know.

The entire western USA uses coal ash on the roads in winter. Last I heard, nobody has died in traffic as a result of it .... :roll:

i myself wouldn't publish that list here.

to do so would just add fire and credibility to the negative concerns no matter if they're justified or not. if it's public record interested parties can and will find it.

i know, it's just that if I prefilter my drinking water thru 250,000 metric tons of BACON I bet I can get some "strange" readings too.

:P :lol:

KC, is that before or after frying, & the bigger question would be is it still editable? That's all we need corn for ethanol & then bacon for filters, it's just down right un-American. :cry2:

i thought fried so that the granuals could be sewn into mesh bags to ease removal later.

BUT, you given me an even better idea. forget the water. how 'bout we run some distilled product thru it for a truly American beverage ??

my Grandad was big on the notion that everyone gets 2 or more million dollar ideas in their life time, you just only ever hear about the ones that did something about it.
