Found this site....

Do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk, ice cream? Ice cream, Mandrake? Children's ice cream!...You know when fluoridation began?...1946. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual, and certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works.

I bought the special edition DVD. Every time I see this movie I discover something different.

You know, I actually forget how funny that movie is, and have to be reminded every few years. It has to be one of my top 10 favorite movies though.

Did an in depth article on fluoridation in the late 1990s. Put a Dr. Strangelove notation in the lead, but dropped it when the editor didn't get it

There's actually some validity to the anti-fluoride position, and some legitimate concerns over getting too much fluoride from both natural sources and consumer products.

I work in the water/wastewater field... flouride is a deadly poison in fairly small amounts. We should be careful with it... it is part of a mnufacturing process (a byproduct of aluminum) that is hazardous waste. It is a godsend for the manufacturer to get rid of the stuff by dilluting it to non leathal levels and feeding it to us.

Ah, well (ground) water... sweet, iron infested well water

I grew up on well water. When I moved to Milwaukee for college it took a LONG time to get used to the taste of "processed" water.

Horrible, simply horrible. Water filters are a wonderful thing

Why did they put iron in the water? Are people in Wisconsin short on iron?

LOL!! You're not serious are you?

Well water is just that, water right out of the ground. It doesn't go thru water treatment like the water in a town or city.

Where I grew up, the water had a lot of iron dissolved in it from the ground. Gave it a nice metallic taste. Kinda like chewing on the wingspar of a 109

Look at British teeth, or East Texas teeth, for that matter. I'll take the flouride, thank you.

So if it wasn't there naturally, would you put iron in it?

Yeah... mention that to someone who works in the dental industry and you'll get a fight. I've got three dental hygienists/assistants in my family and they get all heated up whenever I voice my opinion of fluoridated water.

No, I would not go and specifically add iron to it. Iron doesn't taste particularly good. However, after drinking it for 18+ years, you don't taste it anymore (cuz all the taste buds are dead

)

When I moved out of the sticks, switching to processed water (i.e. chlorinated, flouride) all the other crap that's been put into it was a big change. To this day I still can't drink city water without making a face.
