Assemblyman Mike Duvall and Toilet Water
Posted by: Mike Spence | 08/14/2008 8:59 AM
I've seen Assemblyman Mike Duvall drink in Sacramento. But, the only time I saw him drink water was when he ordered it "as a back". Just messing around of course. But, I was surprised that the Assemblyman along with Orange County Water Districts sponsored a display showcasing Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS) and included actual GWRS water available for tasting.
You know we are talking about toilet water here.
I figured it was a typical politician telling us a bunch of you know what is really tasty.
I left the Capitol. As I exited the building I was a little disconcerted by the port a potties being set up. I powered on. Finding the booth I was told to come back later, because they didn't have a disclaimer.
Sweet. What can go wrong with drinks you need disclaimers for?
Finally in the 100 degree heat, they allowed me a taste.
Not bad. But where was the Kool-Aid?

Get used to that taste Mike. Pretty Soon that will be the only wated left to drink!
Mike, it tastes better than the moonshine they drink in the Capitol. One caution ... don't eat the white mints in the urinal.
There weren't any porta potties. I don't know where that came from.
They were porta potties as I exited the Capitol. They were on the street hooked up to trucks for some reason. They were not part of the taste test. Thankfully.
Yes, I don't want any GWR water that is so pure that only hydrogen and oxygen molecules are left and minerals need to be added back to give it taste.
Just keep giving me that Colorado River water that comes out of my tap. Because it is clean and pure and doesn't have any wastewater from Las Vegas or any other city upstream... Whaaaaa?
The only thing crazy about GWR water is that it needs to be put into a lake where it seeps underground. We're taking water that is more pure than bottled water and putting it into a lake because we are squeamish.
Ridiculous!
Three cheers and "bottoms up" for Mike Duval!
