oh joy. my entire county has rampant lead contamination that they waited years to tell anyone about. good thing I haven't been drinking the water here for 7 years now...
the crazy thing is I know I shouldn't be surprised given how much of the infrastructure here dates back 70+ years, but I still am.
I mean this is the most expensive county in the state, and one of the only positive things the state is known for is the quality of our chemical engineers. You'd think at least one would go into government and tell the rest of the folks "you shouldn't drink lead, that's bad"
