Faux News are espousing the virtues of putting lithium in public water suplies as it allegedly reduces suicide rates.

What makes you think there aren't already higher than normal (ie pre-industrial era) levels of base elements in our supplies already thanks to deep sea dumping and all the rest of the mis-managed waste control going on around the world?

There almost certainly is but that does that mean we should add more?
 
Magick, can we please cut the "out there" posts until after new year.

Tis the season to be jolly and all that.
 
This is old news and researchers have not suggested that lithium be added top water. :p

I wonder what the first conspiracy of 2010 will be. :D
 
Doesn't lithium react rather violently with water? You wouldn't be drinking lithium, you'd be drinking lithium hydroxide.
