Barbara Minton did not write this story, she edited it [Report this comment] Posted by: bpoole on May 12, 2008 7:41 AM Current rating: Not yet rated [1 = poor; 5 = excellent] This story was published (and copyrighted) by the Tucson Citizen, not Natural News. Barbara L. Minton did not write it, I did. She simply edited it and submitted it for publication (presumably for profit). Also, the water "company" she refers to is Tucson Water, the water department for the city of Tucson, Arizona. And the process is not "known as the Fountain Valley process." The process is reverse osmosis. They use it in Fountain Valley, Calif., which is why I referred in the original article to "the Fountain Valley process."
