This may have been covered briefly before...but just want to hear other chime in about the price of water vs the price of gas...
1 Litre of water (store bought) ranges from $2 - 3
vs.
1 Litre of gas ranging from $1.20 - $1.50
I think that's the going rate...we live in a strange world indeed...

People always compare store-bought water to gas at the pumps...
The cost of water is more accurate from your water bill per month. And that definitely is cheaper than gasoline by volume.

My local corner sotre has 1.5L of bottled water for $0.99 plus tax, and I can go to the local No Frills and get 30 500mL bottles, so 15L, for about $3.95making water cost $0.27 per litre.
How is that comparable, or even remotely close to the price of gas??

Was it something like over $100K for a shot of prime bovine juice?

hmmm...good point...haven't thought about the No Frills mega packs...guess the world's not going to heck yet...
I've been talking to my buddy about how likely/unlikely the US will attack Iran...and how a lot of what's going on in Isreal/West Banks/Golem Heights has to do with laying claim to the withering underground water reserves in the area...
