From Nalgene's web site...

http://www.nalgene-outdoor.com/technical/bpaInfo.html

from yahoo news..

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080424/hl_nm/nalgene_lawsuit_dc

Wonder if these are real claims or frivoluous claims....

But best to restrict use of Nalgene bottles - to hiking related uses only!!

This has been around for a while. I only use my Nalgene while hiking and I'm certainly not worried about using it any other time as well.

I drink out of my Nalgene at work everyday. While it is a bit disturbing I don't smoke, do drugs, and I eat mostly organic. I figure that cancels the bad out. lol
