    Its not that the water will go bad, but that the bacteria and or algae that is introduced during the bottling process will have enough time to grow to the point that it can be harmful.

    Also if we took the bacteria out of the equation, if the bottles are exposed to heat or UV light then the plastics begin to break down and you end up consuming them.

    FALLING IN ICY WATER

    Joe Alton has a few bits of advice which make a lot of sense for preparing for this situation:

    • Keep a change of clothes handy that is kept in a waterproof container
    • Have a firestarter that works when wet
    • Have blankets
    • Look for the clearer blue areas of ice (thinner ice tends to be darker)
    • If you fall in, try to stay calm and slow down your breathing to prevent panic
    Alton continues his advice for what to do if you fall in:

    Start by holding your breath and getting your head out of the water. Once you’ve done so, inhale deeply and bend backward. Turn your body in the direction of where you came from; you know the ice was strong enough to hold you there. Tread water and quickly get rid of any heavy objects that are weighing you down. Keep your clothing on, though. It has air pockets between the layers that are helping you stay buoyant.

    Now, try to position your body as horizontally as possible and lift up out of the ice using your hands and arms. Keep your arms spread in front of you to help distribute the strain on the ice. Kick with your feet to gain some forward momentum. At the same time, try to get more of your body out of the water. The more of your body that’s out of the water, the better. Cold water drains body heat much faster than cold air. Allow a few seconds to let water drain from your clothes; it’ll make you lighter.

    Some of the ice may crack but keep moving forward. An ice pick would help gain a handhold (another good reason to have one handy in icy conditions).

    Lift a leg onto the ice and then lift and roll out onto the firmer surface. Do not stand up! Keep rolling in the direction that you were walking before you fell through. This will spread your weight out, instead of concentrating it on your feet. Then crawl away until you are sure that you’re safe.

    Start working to get warm immediately by removing wet clothes and getting out of the wind. Extra clothes from your or a party member’s backpack should be put on immediately.

    Alton also recommends working with someone else instead of trying to make a go of it alone. There truly can be safety in numbers.

    The "stop" on a dog is located inbetween the muzzle and the skull. Or right between the eyes.

    That looks like a tankless water heater with some glow sticks! It's not going to get you far into the future.

    Is that an old Isuzu? They had diesels in those. Maybe he's got a giant turbo hiding under that stack. You know that that's your duramax's little brother don't you Chris?

    Yep, 91-94' Isuzu. Lol

    This guy drove off, it was a straight piped 4 cylinder and an empty front seat. It was so loud!!!

    Dang, I was hoping you were going to say that when he took off he was huffing a big cloud of 4 cylinder turbo diesel exhaust. So, the race stickers are just for show as with the stack. Wonder what happens when it rains. Do you think he's got a drain on there? Or does it burble like it's under water?

    I'm sure water getting into the exhaust is the least of his concerns. Lol. I was wondering the same thing.

    I bet he gets tickets all the time for that loud ass exhaust. Police are tough on noisy fartcan exhausts in this city. Hell, I was warned a few times with a corsa exhaust on my Trans Am. It was loud though. I almost put a Billy Boat exhaust in my Corvette, but changed my mind after driving a couple other cars with that exhaust.

    I must be getting old. I like having a quiet cabin so I can crank up the music.

    I knew a guy back in the 80's that wanted his vette louder so he took an ice pick to the muffler. Sounded like busted up glass packs!
