[at-l] Re: Chemical Water Treatment

[hopefl@juno.com (Lamar Powell)]

Hey Skrappi, I'm a chloroxer. I add 4 to 5 drops of unscented bargain
brand house hold bleach to one bottle of water, quart or liter. I got a
plastic medicine dropper and a one ounce Nalgene bottle at Mt. Rogers
Outfitters two years ago. I keep my little water treatment kit in a zip
lock bag. I got some good info from the American Red Cross web page about
using bleach to treat water. I don't recall all of it but I do recall
that 4 to 5 drops and waiting half an hour works. There are details there
regarding extra dirty water or very cold water. 

I don't have the most efficient taster so I'm not able to smell or taste
the chlorine. Time seems to take the smell and taste away for everyone.
Hopeful
