calcium hypochlorite, pool shock, it's cheap and is shelf stable for years, a small amount goes a long way

Speaking of this, did you watch Doomsday Preppers from two weeks ago? Where they drank the water from that geese pond simply after filtering? Seemed SUPER risky to me.

I have not seen the last several episodes but have them dvr'd. I guess in a true shtf scenario you got to do what you got to do to survive, kind of like dave cantebury's attitude on dual survival when they have no way to get potable water. But if those people truly did that for tv, they are idiots.

Yeah, in a SHTF scenario, you do what you gotta do. Birds carry a lotta dangerous pathogens, and to drink the water after only being filtered seemed rediculous. Hopefully it was staged.
