According to this news release:
In one study, samples taken at two treatment plants down the sewer line from drugmaking factories contained a range of pharmaceuticals -- among them opiates, a barbiturate and a tranquilizer at "much higher detection frequencies and concentrations" than samples taken at other plants, according to preliminary research by the U.S. Geological Survey.So, now we have a reason for the recent rise in illegitimate children in the State of Michigan. ;-)
In another study, Environmental Protection Agency researchers tested sewage at a municipal wastewater treatment plant in Kalamazoo, Mich., that serves a major Pfizer Inc. factory. Bruce Merchant, Kalamazoo's public services director, provided data that showed unusually high concentrations of the antibiotic lincomycin entering the plant, a drug the factory was producing around the time samples were collected.

Can't stay away. :-)
It's not financial. Hope you don't mind.
What a kill-joy. You don't even state where I can get a bottle of this stuff.
I'd like nothing more than to crack open a bottle of sweet Pfizer water and pour myself a stiff one...

Don't mind at all, share anytime you want.

Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be coming to a tap near you in the future.
