I guess what anoyed me most about the lady and the CBC interviewer was the "I'm not a scientist but" and yet she still spoke and they still interviewed her like she was some sort of expert, which she clearly was not. I will always be sceptical when news channels or the government is trying to get me to spend more money instead of doing their real job. If Nalgene is reasonably safe, then it seems to me that PET is even more reasonably safe. It is also lighter and cheaper and more readily available. The people that tell you not to use them more than once... they've sold out. Thrift is a virtue.

Reduce, RE-USE, Recycle ... and don't pay for water!
