Hexavalent Chromium in water article

This article was on the front page of my Yahoo when I turned on the computer.  I want to post it for everyone because it is very scary to me.  I know people in some of these cities!  And I happen to know that some bottled water comes directly from the municipal water supply of Albuquerque.
