Gee
It’s too bad nobody wants clean water in Trumansburg. All the individual solutions of family filtering unots are very costly and very ecologically detrimental sinec they are so inefficient compared to municipal water. Consider Trains for transportation. They would solve the current and future environmental problems associated with poor public policy and energy usage. Perhaps railroads and energy use is a comparable issue to municipal vs individual water systems. These systems are about as practical as everyone driving their own cars for every little errand that needs to be done. Then we fight for the closest parking place at the Gym in order to prevent and exercise from happening inadvertently by walking a distance to the exercise station. Egad exercise in the normal course of daily events?
How un American!
So individual water systems are very wasteful when RO systems are used and very expensive to operate for filtering as compared to municipal water. So why should anyone care in this community about a national clean water act supported or not by Arcuri.
Is this a joke?
