This June 2003 NRDC study of drinking water quality in 19 U.S. cities finds that pollution and deteriorating, out-of-date plumbing are sometimes delivering drinking water that might pose health risks to some residents -- and unless steps are taken now, tap water will get worse. The report issues grades to each municipal water system studied in three problem areas -- water quality and compliance, source water protection, and right-to-know compliance -- and outlines a plan for protecting the nation's drinking water supply.

I think you are asking about the contents of the tap water. The Chlorine..the Fluoride? Correct?
Most of the tap water in the US has Fluoride, and all of it has chlorine in it. I would do some research on those two chemicals and see what you come up with. Its one of those subjects where you are going to find very different opinions and so called "facts". Read what you can and make up your own mind.

i have no websites, but maybe if you look in your local phone book and call the water company or they have what you call an home extension line, where they answer questions about everything. Umm that number would be under agrigulture...if you are in a time cruntch you can always "ask jeeves"

it depends where. an example you can use is mexico or impoverished countries, where the tap water can make you really sick. most sinks in the US have some kind of filter in them, although drinking tap water still isnt completely safe.

tap water is good for you to an extent that it has minerals which are good for your body but it usually has abit of sand which too much of it will give you kidney stones and you will have to have them removed by laser if too big to pass in urine.
