Is rain water safe to drink?
Last night it started to rain while we were at California Adventure.
Janette loves the rain and said at least we wouldn't get thirsty (just open up and drink).
Howard said that she shouldn't do that, he asked her if she knew where that water came from...her answer: "from heaven".
So, where does rain water really come from and is it safe to drink?
Does anyone know?

Here's what I found...
"Normally you could drink rainwater without becoming ill.
However, rainwater contains pollutants, soil, plant parts,
insect parts, bacteria, algae, and sometimes radioactive
materials that the rain/snow has washed out of the air.
If filtered with one of the filtering systems that you
can buy in stores nowadays, and then boiled, you could
probably drink the water safely."
Yeah, what Howard said is what my 8th grade science teacher said. But I still open my mouth sometimes just cuz it feel good.
LIES ...ALL LIES!!! RAIN IS BEAUTIFUL!! A GIFT FROM ABOVE!! :)
