I'm missing something. So they install water coolers on Jan 7 after the Jan 5 state of emergency and this is somehow a big deal? -- nm - oblique Jan 29, 11:40 5
- Jan 7 2015 was when the water coolers were provided, Jan 7 2016 was when the state of emergency was declared -- nm - Roger More Jan 29, 11:45 1
  - Yeah. Missed the year there. Oof indeed. -- nm - oblique Jan 29, 11:45
- seems a pretty big deal since they were telling the people in Flint it was ok to drink the (unfiltered) water -- nm - decline Jan 29, 11:43
- "while state officials were assuring Flint residents their water was safe to drink—which they did until October of last year" - mr. plow Jan 29, 11:42 1
  - Ah. Jan 7 *2015* vs. Jan 5 *2016* -- nm - oblique Jan 29, 11:44
oof -- nm - Beaker Jan 29, 11:37
