Floridated water safe for bongs/waterhash??

Is water treated with flouride or whatever ( for drinking) safe to use with bongs and ice hash or does the flouride burn when heated and cause cancer. I think i heard bubbleman say something about this.

Also dosent tap water have clourine, wouldent this make it unsafe as well??

In the longrun anyway.

Flouride is dangerous for people even in non-heated, average supplies that is provided with tap water. But Im only talking about when you drink the water. I don't believe it's corrosive to your bong though.

As far as chlorine, you can let the water sit for a bit and let the chlorine dissipate.

When you use a bong you aren't heating up the water by any appreciable means. I'd say that's a myth

Ripper: Mandrake?
Mandrake: Yes, Jack?
Ripper: Have you ever seen a Commie drink a glass of water?
Mandrake: Well, I can't say I have.
Ripper: Vodka, that's what they drink, isn't it? Never water?
Mandrake: Well, I-I believe that's what they drink, Jack, yes.
Ripper: On no account will a Commie ever drink water, and not without good reason.
Mandrake: Oh, eh, yes. I, uhm, can't quite see what you're getting at, Jack.
Ripper: Water, that's what I'm getting at, water. Mandrake, water is the source of all life. Seven-tenths of this earth's surface is water. Why, do you realize that seventy percent of you is water?
Mandrake: Uh, uh, Good Lord!
Ripper: And as human beings, you and I need fresh, pure water to replenish our precious bodily fluids.
Mandrake: Yes. (he begins to chuckle nervously)
Ripper: Are you beginning to understand?
Mandrake: Yes. (more laughter)
Ripper: Mandrake. Mandrake, have you never wondered why I drink only distilled water, or rain water, and only pure-grain alcohol?
Mandrake: Well, it did occur to me, Jack, yes.
Ripper: Have you ever heard of a thing called fluoridation. Fluoridation of water?
Mandrake: Uh? Yes, I-I have heard of that, Jack, yes. Yes.
Ripper: Well, do you know what it is?
Mandrake: No, no I don't know what it is, no.
Ripper: Do you realize that fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous Communist plot we have ever had to face?

Ripper: Do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk, ice cream? Ice cream, Mandrake? Children's ice cream! ...You know when fluoridation began?...1946. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual, and certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works. I first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love...Yes, a profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I-I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence. I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women, er, women sense my power, and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Mandrake...but I do deny them my essence.

That was from Dr. Strangelove if you've never seen it I strongly recommend it, one of the best movies ever made.

Roflmao WHAT?

Of course I wasn't serious. Did you really think that I was saying fluoridation is a communist conspiracy, that we should only drink rain water and grain alcohol, and deny women our "essence"?

I'm not that crazy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fluoridation_controversy

They also sell cigarettes, beer, soda, and lots of other things that are bad for you when consumed. It doesn't mean it's harmless just because you can buy it.

And yes, most people do brush their teeth with flouridated toothpaste. However, you will notice that when swallowed, you are urged to call poison control center immediately. You are also generally advised not to eat or drink anything for a few hours after brushing your teeth so you don't ingest much flouride.

So... how good do you think the flouride in the tap water (or bottled water) can really be for you?

And of course, you always can end up with (And I have seen a lot of cases of) Dental Fluorosis from too much fluoride.

I think he's talking about smoking the fluoride which gets incorporated into the water hash process (if you use water that has it in it)

I wouldn't wanna smoke fluoride. I'm sure it can't be good for ya. Eating it and brushing teeth with it seems a little less harmful.
