1424545	2016-09-02 19:43:00	Ah, but Ak also gets its drinking water from the polluted Waikato river . . watercare . co . nz/about-watercare/our-services/water-treatment/Pages/default . aspx" target="_blank">www . watercare . co . nz The majority of Auckland's water comes from 10 dams in the Hunua and Waitakere ranges . How the Waikato River water is treated Step 1: Coagulation and clarification After first passing through a screening filter to remove large debris such as leaves and branches, coagulant (aluminium sulphate or ‘alum’), lime, and carbon dioxide are mixed into the water . This causes the tiny dirt particles to stick together, making for easier removal . The water is then piped into settling tanks, where the mixture of alum and dirt (known as ‘floc’) sinks to the bottom of the tank . Step 2: Membrane filtration The clarified water is then treated by advanced, ultra-filtration membrane technology to remove pathogenic organisms . The pores of the membrane filters are so small (about 15 times smaller than the filter system in household water filters) that they prevent the spores of parasites, giardia, and cryptosporidium from passing through . Step 3: Granular activated carbon filtration During this stage, any organic compounds are absorbed into carbon particles . Carbon also removes any unpleasant taste or odours from the water . Step 4: Chlorine treatment In the final stage, chlorine is added to the water to kill any remaining viruses and prevent bacterial growth during storage and transportation . The sophistication of the treatment process means the Waikato Water Treatment Plant uses around one-third less chlorine than Watercare’s other treatment plants .	pctek (84)

I found this reply of yours re Spark on your own post about "texting from overseas" a little strange from a person with the above abilities.... :) Where you replied Thanks. Guess I didn't try hard enough searching their site.... Ken :) :banana	kenj (9738)

1424548	2016-09-02 21:51:00	Why can't we just rid ourselves of the current idiot government instead? Because we need idiots to make us feel good and give us something to discuss (logically of course) :) Ken	kenj (9738)
1424549	2016-09-03 00:31:00	Why can't we just rid ourselves of the current idiot government instead? The problem is that every one we rid ourselves of has to be replaced, which in turn leaves the Cure worse than the Disease. :crying As far as I can see the best option is to vote NZ First and hope they get enough votes to rein in the present lot.

1424550	2016-09-03 00:34:00	Why can't we just rid ourselves of the current idiot government instead? Because we mainly White born in New Zealand people voted them in.	prefect (6291)
1424551	2016-09-03 00:53:00	Because we mainly White born in New Zealand people voted them in. It is called democracy and although not perfect it's better than any other form of government as far as I can see.	CliveM (6007)
