Public Water Fountains

I don't drink from public water fountains anymore.  After seeing one too many people putting their mouths over the part of the fountain where the water comes out, I had to give them up for good.  I've also seen people letting their dogs drink from public water fountains in the park.  Nasty!  Now I'm no germophobe.  Just living in New York forces you to deal with unsanitory conditions pretty much on a daily basis when you leave your home.  Between subway poles, stairway rails, and ATM's, the world is not a clean place and that's just the way it is.  But putting your hands on something that may have been touched by many, many other people is a far cry from putting your mouth on something that may have been touched by many, many other thirsty people (or thirsty animals).  Ugh!
