Because of the water cycle that is.

YES OF COURSE.
Scientifically, water is water. H2O
Whether it is solid ice, liquid water-drinkable, or steam as in vapor, clouds, etc., it is still H2).
It gets recycled by flowing down rivers, into lakes, into the ocean and then it is drawn upward by the sun to make clouds and eventually, (hopefully) it falls to earth again in the form of rain. (Some is drawn up from under the ground)
It gets purified in the process and unless it picks up man made pollution on the way the water is clean and renewed. It gets used over and over, nature has a way of using everything to its maximum ability.
Of course that is ignoring the possibility that all of the "dinosaur water" is trapped in ice on the north and south poles!!!??????
Keep those thoughts flowing people..................

Yes and NO!
Yes because of the close water cycle.
But, because of quantum physics, and since Hydrogen atoms are interchangeable, you cannot trace back the history of a water molecule back to the old times!
There is no sense thinking one molecule of water is the same an ancestor drank in the past!

we are ( but why stop there we are drinking the water from the formation of the earth ) BUT since this is science lets note that not all of the water is original we have had lots added by comets in the last 6 Billion years ( and there are reactions that combine hydrogen and oxygen but these are only responsible for a very small percentage - very very small )

Yes it is. Not only water gets recycled, but all the elements. If you take it one step further, you can say that at least the oxygen in the water, and all elements except hydrogen, is recycled since it was once part of a now dead star.

i doubt it since there was no filtration systems back in the Jurassic period,and since all the dinosaurs probably drank from the same source there was probably dinosaur drool in there water sources and i cant recall drinking dinosaur slobber recently

Yes. And the organic matter that made up those dinosaurs, and every living thing that has ever lived, is within us. We're recycling everything.

ya i guess---because of the water cycle that has going on forever. unless my science teachers have always lied... than yes we have been

Yes. You can bottle it and say it prehistoric water. Radio carbon dating wont be able to disprove anything.
