Back


**UPDATE: the label on Aquafina will soon be changed to spell out that it is just expensive tap water. For more info message me on myspace.com/cahern

The craze of bottled water is a national obsession but tap water is usually safer for you, and often better tasting too. Using a hidden camera, Penn & Teller will take a look at the obsession.

All I hear is "blah blah blah, unsubstantiated conspiracy theory, blah blah blah..."

If you're so sure fluoride is poison, where's your sources? Where's your evidence? Why don't you test your own tap water and post the results?

Are you aware that they have recanted their global warming episode?

by the way, they didn't have ONE scientist on the "Being Green" episode, just a bunch of right-wingers trashing Al Gore.

So I see no value in watching any other of their episodes after seeing how they are unbelievable inaccurate. Nothing else they do holds any credibility now. Complete waste of time.

Not to mention Showtime went really down in my eyes. When I get around to it I am cancelling

well, I was going to go see their show in Las Vegas until I saw their global warming denial episode on Showtime complete with a hitpiece on Al Gore.

I used to like Penn. I heard him on NPR and thought he was great, one of the good guys.

After seeing that episode I really am just boycotting. It was awful, rehashing global warming denialist talking points, they didn't even bother to write their own material

Nope, no more Penn, not unless he apologizes for the "Being Green" episode

Scientist after scientist after scientist are exposing the water fluoridation scam: taxpayers forced to pay millions to corporations to let them dump toxic waste in the water supply under the guise that it is good for us. This video is pure propaganda. Penn Jillette is a high school graduate dancing monkey who gets paid millions to read whatever they tell him to read off the teleprompter. He's the same as Rush Limbaugh.

City after city is wising up to the fluoridation scam. Fluoridation is industrial waste -- not even refined. Government adding any drug the water supply for any rationale is ominous.

>>> "So Penn & Teller by encouraging people to drink fluoridated drinking water from the tap, under the guise that it is the government medicating us for our own good, are spreading disinformation. And so much for being true libertarians, against the "nanny state" and for personal choice in all things. Frauds."

Ever tried a water softener?

Or the simpler explanation might be possible: fluoride is good for dental health and the concentration you are exposed to at the dentist is thousands of times more potent. Don't vaccinate your kids while you're at it. Moron...
