THE anti-depressant drug Prozac is being taken in such large quantities in Britain that it has entered water supplies.

Experts from the Environmental Agency are calling for an immediate investigation after it emerged that quantities of the medication were found in rivers and groundwater used for drinking supplies.

How can a drug simply "find it's way" !? Careless pill control? heh, conspiracy! For it to be detected in water supplies... that's a ****load. I imagine lakes, rivers, udnerground water sources - millions of gallons.

How anyone from the land of McDonalds and KFC has the gall to talk like a cordon bleu is quite amusing in itself. Probably a Friends fan too.

Not at all. I just think it's funny when anyone from the land of the Big Mac critiques any other country for their food.
