Feeling depressed?

Just take a drink of tap water. It's been talked about for a while, but federal researchers have now shown that different types of pharmaceuticals (anti-depressants, anti-convulsives, ibuprofen, naproxen and even cattle antibiotics) are all in our drinking water. Or at least in the water in and around D.C. has that stuff in it. I'm betting there's junk in your water too. Scientists say the amounts ingested are not enough to affect you in the short time, but they don't know the long term effects. Great...now I have to worry about the hormone infused meat I eat, the processed cheese...and the water I drink. There's a possibility my generation might turn out to be a bunch of mutated weirdos when we're older.
