Choices

Of course -- the treatment process leaves it cleaner than some tapwater

Yes -- but I would either filter it or boil it first

Maybe -- it depends on how thirsty I am and what else is available to drink

No -- even if it’s clean, I can’t get past the idea of drinking sewage water

Absolutely not -- no amount of treatment could make it clean enough for me
