Now, my question is, why do people willingly spend $1-2 on a small bottle of "spring" water, when the stuff is available completely free? NYC has always had some of the best tap water anywhere, so why so many water bottles? And it's not like other cities have polluted water (except on some rare occassions). What's even more recockulous is that Dasani (and I think other products) are just city water (of the local bottling plant) which is filtered, purified, and then has a mineral/flavoring pack mixed in to give it a uniform national "taste." Folks, that's tap water.
Now, this doesn't say anything about the folks with the Nalgene bottles, or the few who refill their poland spring bottles from the tap. But $1 for water? What are people doing complaining about gas prices?

Chicago water is fine too.
Indianapolis water is disgusting. Brita doesn't even filter that shit.
What's wrong with Nalgene? I have three.*
Attaching the Nalgene to your belt loop via a carabiner makes you a dork.**
*but they're only carried around in a daypack for hikes, beach, etc.
**I've done this.
