Re: OT Damien''s salmonella worries
Oops ! I didn't want to start a fight here... I respect other
people's lifestyles. I just wanted to warn people about a disease.
It's not my intention to change nobody's habits.

I think people should ask their doctor about this things. Specially
before travelling to another country. An example: in my country it's
absolutely safe to drink water from the faucet, the same water that
is used for watering plants, washing cars... It tastes well nad has
no chlorine. I make my water Kefir with that water. I know that I
can not advise someone living in other countries to do that.

BTW: My name is Damián not Damien

Regards,
     Damián Lezama
