Interesting, and sounds bizarre. But then again I have no idea how long we've had potable water in WA. Anyone have any ideas on that?
And for the record Raymo, we can't drink the water that come out of our taps here in the Perth metro either. I'm not sure what they add but the taste is awful so we have to use a Brittax filter jug.
