The years passed, mankind became stupider at a frightening rate. Some had high hopes that genetic engineering would correct this trend in evolution, but sadly the greatest minds and resources were focused on conquering hair loss and prolonging erections.

  1. I see from the synopsis that 500 years into the future water has been replaced with Brawndo: The Thirst Mutilator, a drink advertised as "rich in electrolytes", for virtually every purpose, including crop irrigation. Water is only used in toilets.

    Perhaps my campaign against bottled water is time well spent after all.

  2. I remember a "Which" report some years ago looking at the bacterial count in bottled waters. There is a statutory standard for this value which applies to tap water, but not bottled. Of all the brands of bottled water on the market only one, a Manchester company, satisfied this standard. When they were asked where they got their water from for bottling they openly admitted it came from the tap.
