Berkey Sport Bottle for Water

Wow, look at what I just found! I had no idea something like this existed: http://www.jamesfilter.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=20

Pricey, but convenient; definitely something to keep in mind. Could be worth it.

From my calculations, it looks like it works out to be a little cheaper than buying filtered water at 25 cents a gallon (like we do now). And buying 25 cent/gallon water is much cheaper than buying bottled water (usually about 25 cents/BOTTLE, at the cheapest), not to mention better for the environment. This would also be very nice to have with us for travel. Hmm, very interesting ....

Hospital Food

"...why is sugar fed to people that are trying to get well? And margarine and creamer/milker were on the menu each day. No butter or cream here! Important to get your daily dose of trans fats and hydrogenated oils, after all. Much better choice than saturated fat, which our bodies need to get the vitamins and minerals into our cells. Oh yeah. Food cooked to death so I guess there are no vitamins left to transport. No worries then - no transportation needed. By offering up trans fats, cell messaging will be blocked instead. That will help people heal...."
