Rick ] Lloyd. "Twenty years ago, this glass of water was just that - now it's a commodity."</i></p></blockquote> <p>[ <i>Source: <a href="http://www.simcoe.com/sc/collingwood/story/1116932p-1331878c.html" title="Simcoe Connection Jun 6, 2003">Chippewas want to help town in pipeline battle</a></i> ]</p> http://sbp.teledyn.com/node/51#comments Ecology Cape Croker Water Fri, 06 Jun 2003 16:54:00 -0400 garym 51 at http://sbp.teledyn.com
