All I know (or care) about that is....
I was like, 3 years old when they started adding the stuff to the drinking water where I lived. I moved to a different area when I was about 12, went for a check-up, and the dentist gave me a clean bill of health, adding; " You're from New West, right?".
"Yeah." I said.
"I can tell." he said.
Other than that, I haven't died from flouride or anything yet, the water tastes just dandy to me, and the word "Flouride" (or however it's spelled) is printed on all the teeth-related products that I buy.

also remember hearing around that time..... during the cold war such that it was..... various memes on the Russians planning to poison our water supply.
Fast forward a coupla decades and we've got this very post here:
"Foriegn companies are scooping up and privitizing US water companies by the droves. Their dirty little paws on the flow control nozzle for the fluoride injector.""Their dirty little paws on the flow control nozzle for the fluoride injector."
I swear to god, I am going to try and work that into an everyday run of the mill conversation, just to see the response.
"How's about the fluctuating oil prices?" someone will ask.
