Ironically, I stopped getting cavities about five years ago at around the same time I moved out of a flouridated community.

The "evidence" that flouridated water prevents cavities is anecdotal. There are just as many communities that don't flouridate the water that have seen decreasing incidences of cavities.

Fluoride just makes you dumb...just like lead...

NYC tap is great, but here's why:

shrimp cocktail in every gulp!


Also something else to consider when drinking from the tap if you live near any natural gas mines, the gas can leak into the water reservoir causing a flammable water to come out of your faucet. Some guy made a documentary about it ("Gasland")

I was stuck in Newark airport last week and the lounge was closing, had a boat load of New Jersey tap water. I'm okay. Didn't think it tasted anything either - of course it might be because I was really thirsty.
