		<description>Terry, thanks for the article.  That's pretty scary stuff and I recall reading about it awhile back.  It's sad to think that no matter how clean you try to live, in the end, you can't be 100% clean.  The world we live in is so polluted, from the air to the water, that all we can do is try to live such that we stave off as much damage as possible.  

As for emasculation of boys, let's not forget the huge amounts of soy that are in the food supply.  Soy is a food known for its emasculating effects.  

Cheers

		<description>Excellent points Scott.

Here something else that can affect immunity.
I just read this AP story of some investigative reporting they have done (I didn’t think that reporters did investigations anymore!)

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080309/ap_on_re_us/pharmawater_i

This has been a concern of mine for the past few years. I’m glad to see it finally addressed. After hearing rumors that prozac can be found in Seattle’s drinking water, when my grandmother, who had congestive heart failure, passed away a few years ago I was appaulled to learn that all of her perfectly good bubble wrapped medications were to be flushed down the toilet!. The amount of medications in pill form alone was two inches deep in a plastic box about the size of shoe box for light hikers. Aside from the waste of medications, and I do understand the reasons for the law requireing them to be disposed of, just the thought of all those pills going into the ground water made me think about how many times a day that must occur across the country. There must be a better system of drug disposal.

I am convinced that these trace amounts found in water are having an affect on the population. Obesity (which started to rise 15 years after birth control pills became commonly proscribed), efemination of boys in some areas and some cases of male baldness are three things I can think of off the top of my hear.

After reading the article I think everyone getting off as many drugs as possible will be the best long term solution for everyone.</description>
