This could be a good thing, Ray. Most of the country is on "mood stabilizers" anyway and we have had concerns about drug costs. Now they're free.

There have been numerous reports of the US being "under sexed" so maybe the hormones will help a bit.

All in all this might be the cure for Medicare costs. Free drugs!!

Whoopeeeee!!

Now if they will put a little gasoline in the water....

"A sex hormone was detected in San Francisco's drinking water."

I am sure it's not estrogen!


I have to remember when visiting San Fran not to drink the water ...
I may end up growing something I just don't want ...

Default My two cents....
Water treatment facilities have always treated for microbe sized stuff and not molecular sized stuff. I did some contract work for a guy researching the effects of drugs on fish populations and sedimentation concerns. Needless to say, what we don't know is sometimes better for us. I have just enough information in some cases to be more of a danger to myself than a wise consumer !
