  Every time I "chime" in on this subject it doesn't get posted?  Here  
  goes...
  "Polar Pure" is banned from retail sale in CA.  People have confused  
  it with "Aquamira" ( 1 word) and "Potable Aqua."

  It is a good product, lasts indefinitely and costs about $16.  I used  
  it on the JMT and I did not catch any "bugs."  I can't say if I was  
  lucky or the product did what it was supposed to do?  It does come in  
  a glass bottle so that may be a problem for some people. If you  
  "Google" the above words you can see what the manufactures of each  
  say about their own products. (I hope this gets published otherwise  
  my feelings will be hurt, whaaaa)
