You should be absolutely fine. Tap water goes through a sanitation process in our country. Unless you have something very wrong with your property/water system, your tap water should be drinkable.
People mostly use filtered water because it tastes better, not necessarily because their tap water is unsafe. If you start showing symptoms for something, then go to the doctor.
Ok, yes. Unless you live in the 3rd world that is insanely paranoid, heh :p I prefer not to drink tap water because where I live it isn't the greatest (it has chlorine and other crap in it), so I have a filter installed. You can also buy clay water purifiers, which I've also used.
They're not too expensive either. Have a look on ebay. All that said, I do drink tap water sometimes - you needn't worry so much.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
