Yeah...you would think they would have tried harder to warn people in the morning about this. I had already showered when we rec'd a call from our landlords regarding this...thankfully they watch News12 in the morning.

I went into work and two immediate co workers that live in the area also knew nothing about this...and used, drank and bathed in the water.

It also makes you wonder how long this chemical has been in the water...

That stinks!
And yes it does make you wonder...
Hope they can clean it up soon - I mean how long do they expect people not to shower!?!?!?!
