If word got out that humans had a robust immune system then we would be harder to scare, therefore less complacent.
Q.E.D. we must have fear beaten into us so that we can be good little sheep.

Like everything else on this planet, if you don't allow it to work or operate it will eventually break down, this includes our immune system.

Now peeing is bad for your health! Who woulda thought it would come to this.

- (LAUGHING) --- It's not the peeing that's bad for your health, it's the drinking! "They" are working on a solution, though. I'm curious as to how much the general population is affected by people's prescription medicine waste, and if it's worse in Florida (and other places where older people live and have to take many meds sometimes). *SMILES*

We do tend to take more than we really need. However,
will probably will find a way to remove these drugs, they
can remove all kinds of pollunts. Sewer water can be
purified to be extremely clean and drinkable. It's
being done in California because fresh clean water is
getting more scarce all the time.

- Yes, that's what I thought. The lady on the news really didn't go into that part of it, but like you, I guessed they'd figure it out. Thanks for your comments! *SMILES*
