It was interesting-- the big issue here is should water be floridated? San Antonio is the largest city out there with no floride.

It has been voted down several times for reasons such as "floride kills," :it's a communist plot," "all children growing up on floride grow up with braindamage..." It's crazy!

I think it may actually pass this time because enough people from "outside" have moved into town.

And there are some major problems with teeth in a lot of areas. Should be interesting...

Floridation won--by a slim margin (53%) and it is already being said it will be challenged (beacause you are slowly trying to poison us...).

Isn't this whole Florida thing wild? I'm glad I'm not either candidate at this time -- can you imagine the stress!? I've got it, no I don't, back and forth.

We don't have floride in our water so I must spend bucks on treatments for the kids, Vitamins and rinses. My 8 year old has had a root canal already. If it is in your water you do not need to take fortified vitamins or do the rinses. Just be careful with how much is ingested. Have the water tested often to keep levels in check.
