Personally, I think taking public transit is cool!  I just don't do it because it's not conveniently set up for me.  I'd totally do it if it was convenient though.  

We don't drink straight from the tap though, we run it through a filter first.




Yea but it became a social stigma. Like in America taking public transportation and drinking tap water is considered things that poor people do. 

You gotta drink your overpriced VOSS water that comes in a glass bottle and take your uber black to flex to the world you aren’t poor!

Never would have guessed Dallas didn’t use any groundwater. I think one of the biggest blunders over the last 30-40 years was convincing the American public that tap water was somehow inferior to bottle water. Anyone in the water field will tell you how much of a scam that was and Americans were convinced that drinking water from a manufactured plastic bottle was safer than water coming from an underground pipe.

I wasn't aware that Americans were convinced by this.

I do know that when we travel, we're told that drinking bottled water is safer, because in some countries they don't purify their water that well.  But mostly what I've heard is that in America drinking tap water is fine.

Where does Dallas get its water from?
