just above washington, i found another usgs team sampling water from the potomac, part of a nationwideking for 300 emerging contaminants in our drinking water. they were looking for well-known pollutants like pesticides, and for newly detected contaminants found in pharmaceuticals, body lotions, soaps and deodorants. in all, they found 85 compounds we're just now starting to be able to even analyze for in water. but the treatment isn't intended to remove those products. >> smith: what makes this a matter of concern is that this is the intake for the washington aqueduct, where one million people in the dc area get their drinking water. few of us may realize it, but people downstream use waste water from people upstream. the potomac, like other rivers, serves as both the place where we dump our wastewater and the place where we get our drinking water. it's one big continuous recycling operation from the toilet or the shower to the tap. >> the river flows down, a community takes water out of the river, puts it back through a wastewater plant a few miles down, out, back, out, back. and wit

this is an unscientific or fallacious argument, i have turned the tables and showed b usg darwin's method and applying it to information to evidence he did not knowout, we can show the central legacy of darwin is not that there is no evidence of design but we can use his method to reaffirm the case for a design based on excitingiscoveries of modern biology. thank you.
