I like the idea, But what about the chlorine in the tap water. Isn't chlorine evaporated, and thus would end up in the cooler bottle. A second stage would be necessary to to allow the chlorine to evaporate off.

Thought I would share it so someone could try anyway, as I am not home enough to do these kinds of tests at this time. Simply place a bottle of the tap water outside where it is very warm/hot, run a tube through a window or small opening, into another empty bottle, natural process occurs, the vapor that heat creates becomes liquid again on the inside "cool" bottle. If you try this let me know how it goes, have thought many times of trying it but havent gotten settled enough to do such things yet, still unpacking...ugh...at 1 day a week it will take me 3 years to get it all unpacked....lol...good luck.

Silver salts have been known to cause argyria in a matter of minutes on the skin with only one application. The reason is that when taken by mouth it would take a good bit to reach the threashold value of salts in the skin, but when applied directly it can only take a drop.
