In fact the only two things I can think of that could cause problems with this idea is the health problems already epidemic in those countries and the fact that every country would fight over the land. And both AIDs and Greed lack a cure.

does that mean having children? Stop speaking American ;) I intend to adopt a child of every colour like angelina jolie. So technically that would be no wouldn't it?

Is that what you are asking me :D

I'd go for Virgin Cambodia.

God you people are sooo unimaginative, why doesn't anyone suggest anything spontaneous and outside the box for once! Wild ideas are fun, and lets face it, there isn't enough people thinking of 'solutions' for the 3rd world, so wild ideas are better than no idea.

Would rather leave the plight of the 3rd world to virgin or microsoft than bono and bob geldof.

Yes I do drink bottled but only when the tap is not about. Like in the car or if staying away from home. I often find hotel water tastes like rats pee.

Well womens magasines often have found cheap outfits that look really alike the designer ones so that us ladies can have the top fashions too within our budget. It's only material at the end of the day and a name to it that puts the price up. Its probably just the same with the water right? People are always willing to pay more expensive amounts for a name, besides, some people just have too much money to know what to do with it.

I like drinking our Lancashire tap water. Much better than the muck I used to get out of my faucet in London, and having returned tonight from warmer climes, and after drinking nothing but bottled water for a fortnight, even to clean my teeth, I'm so happy to be back, and look forward to seeing a solid stool once again.:D

When I worked down in Norfolk 3 years since the tap water down there was also 'hard' I knew of some people who used a water filter that connected to the mains water supply, never seen one or heard of such a type used since mind, but I also fairly sure that limescale coursed by the lime damaged peoples appliances quicker then around here as well.

I also drink normal tap water around here at least and again it has never done me any harm.

Have a look at this. I know Americans are a bit on the dumb side but it could happen over here as well. Especially if you went down south.
