Man, that is nasty. As they said in the article, not only a health issue, a moral one too.

Re-considering vegetarianism.

I've been leery (not "O'Leary") about the "potable" water for years.

Aircrew Health - Aircraft Drinking Water Quality

Is Drinking and Handwashing Water on Planes Safe? on MedicineNet.com

Basic ADWR Information | Aircraft Drinking Water Rule | US EPA

The nice part is that, unlike the passenger aircraft, our water sits in the tanks for a long time before it is refilled, so things have plenty of time to grow and chemicals have plenty of time to leach into the water.
