To Orwell Today,

Hi Jackie,

I learned about you a few minutes ago and have been skimming through your very informative and interesting site.

Just now I was able to skim through this: GARBAGING EARTH'S PURIST WATER.

Did you not mean "purest" - instead of "purist"? I realize that you have written your Mom was a health purist.

In any case, I plan to read more. I am glad I learned about you and your work.

May God bless you!

Greetings Dido,

I'm glad you told me you were a grand DAD, otherwise, with that name, I might have thought you were a grand MOM.

Speaking of Moms, yes, mine was a pure person, a "purist" -- but, as you say, pure WATER is spelled "purest". I've made the correction now on the heading of the article.

Thanks for pointing out that error -- I appreciate it when readers provide proof-reading services.

All the best,
Jackie Jura

PS - Speaking of pure water, you might be interested in reading about Libya's GREAT MAN-MADE RIVER which is considered to be the EIGHTH WONDER OF THE WORLD. I talk about in a recent interview and wrote an essay about it. Also, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation made a documentary on it:
