Along with admonishing you for your shitty spelling, anonie, let me remind you that:
The federal government is saying we have to cover the reservoirs. The city has fought its last legal battle over this subject long ago. It's going to happen.

I'm a perfectly healthy adult, and I drank some water the night before the boil order was announced. While at work that evening, I felt like shitting my pants and/or vomiting. When I went home, I got violently ill. This has never happened to me before, and I've lived in Portland since 1986.

And jpen: you're referencing something I wasn't talking about. Read...the thing that's right up there for your easy perusal. I was talking about covering the reservoirs, and how all the legal challenges to that proposal have been exhausted; now it's a fait accompli.

And having lived in Portland since the eighties doesn't make me native? When most of my acquaintances have lived here ten years at the most? You're a fucking feeb. "Man up" isn't an argument.
