Tasmania has been sending bulk tanker load of "clean" water to California for years, the yuppies can buy it in a "plastic" bottle off their supermarket shelves my seamen mates tell me.

There is a store in San Francisco that sells NOTHING but water from every continent on earth. Geez people it is only Oxygen and Hydrogen. But some people will buy anything if it is cool and comes in a pretty package.
I think all of us should get together and open a store that sells ONLY nicely packaged dog droppings.  :rofl: Jake would contribute his fair share.  :wink
Happy Holidays mates!
:cheers:

Ridiculous price for the water in the USA. http://www.tasmanianrain.com/order.html (http://www.tasmanianrain.com/order.html)   I don't like the water here in Arizona it is full of chemicals so I buy a pack of 48 small bottles from the local Drug Store for $3.50.  That would be $138.00 for the Tasmanian water!!!!!!!!!
