Number 1 was on my bottle that I had been using and reusing and I

tossed it into the trash! As the #1 is made from polyethylene

Tetraethylate it also would be dangerous to our health. The numbers

are located in a triangle on the bottom of the bottle. This info came

from Dr Warren Clough who is an 80 year old gentleman that has been

studying pure water and air for 60 years. His phone number was posted

on another forum and and several people called him. Everyone was

pleased with the info gathered. I posted his web site in my first post

on distilled water.

hey del - more info if you have it! according to the Green Guide, #1 was

alright (as in, it doesn't leech into its contents), but i know nothing

about plastics...

i suppose what i really want to know is, are there *any* that are alright?
