Here are some of the key test results obtained by the AP:
Officials in Philadelphia said testing there discovered 56 pharmaceuticals or byproducts in treated drinking water, including medicines for pain, infection, high cholesterol, asthma, epilepsy, mental illness and heart problems. Sixty-three pharmaceuticals or byproducts were found in the city's watersheds.
Anti-epileptic and anti-anxiety medications were detected in a portion of the treated drinking water for 18.5 million people in Southern California.
Researchers at the U.S. Geological Survey analyzed a Passaic Valley Water Commission drinking water treatment plant, which serves 850,000 people in Northern New Jersey, and found a metabolized angina medicine and the mood-stabilizing carbamazepine in drinking water.
A sex hormone was detected in San Francisco's drinking water.
The drinking water for Washington, D.C., and surrounding areas tested positive for six pharmaceuticals.
Three medications, including an antibiotic, were found in drinking water supplied to Tucson, Ariz.

if you're in the US, "examine whether contaminants in your water supply met two standards: the legal limits established by the Safe Drinking Water Act, and the typically stricter health guidelines."
(it's in the small left column)
Yup, I'm definitely going to have to look for a way to purify my drinking water.

I drink San Francisco tap water. Tastes pretty good to me. We used a Brita filter for a while, but it kept growing mold so we threw it out.

Some bottled spring water (that is essentially tap water from a different location) could be better than your own local municipal water.
For instance, New Hampshire and Maine seem to have relatively better municipal water than New Jersey or New York State.

- Caffeine makes your body expel more water than you take in for the consumed drink. So you are likely always a bit dehydrated.ETM
- dehydrated. Its just like alcohol. Unless you're drinking caffeine free...ETM
- actually i researched that and it's mostly false. you absorb 2/3 of the liquid in a can of caffeinated soda and not much more in uncaffeinatedscarabin
