Filling Hlt With Garden Hose?

[bcp]

There's a lot of discussion about the lead content of garden hoses and PVC... Well the romans ignored lead, and they lived reasonably long... I don't think the argument that we're surrounded by unavoidable toxic chemicals really helps. We're responsible for creating beverages for others, and due diligence doesn't go astray.
