Wait until you are IN the water, or on the bike, or potentially if you are really good - on the run. I bet his T1 sucked as well.

I wonder if the same officials have all the local pools drained daily considering we all know what goes on in there

I'm sorry, but draining that water may be the dumbest thing I have ever heard of.  Hell, do they drain it every time a bird craps in it?  It's a water treatment plant.....we get our water from the Mississippi river, not exactly pristine, eh?  It tastes good to me.

And unless the young lad has a urinary tract infection, urine is sterile.

“Our customers have an expectation that their water is not deliberately contaminated"

But, accidentally, by the excrement of many species... it's totally ok.

I was going to post to this story. I can't believe that they'd waste 38 millions gallons of water because one kid whizzed in the reservoir. 38 millions gallons to what, a few ounces of urine? We'll take the water here in California. We need it, with our without the additives. In fact, if they'll agree to ship it here, I'll go up there and in a few reservoirs.

It seems silly to me, too. I'm guessing the reason why they are draining it, is because they got "caught" and got complaints. But really, 38 MILLION gallons of water!?!?

Honey, great news. I just spent our kids’ college fund on a new bike! The sales guy said it will shave at least 3 seconds off my 40K time. Umm, honey why do you have a knife in your hand???
