First of all, it's usually frozen, right?

So you're not exactly going to scoop it up or even put it into an ice snowball.

So drinking it or ingesting it is probably a low probability.

And to be honest, there's a lot of salt in there.

And all that salt is also not very healthy for you.

And in New York, when it all melts, where does it go?

It goes into the East River and the Hudson River predominantly.

Perhaps.

I'm not going to opine on the quality of water, but yes, there are some issues there.

But it is at least saline water, right?

It is fresh water coming down, but it is tidal.

So we got saline water washing up from New York Harbor.

I don't know exactly the type, but I mean, it's everything from food waste to people, you know, spitting on the snow, dogs pooping and peeing.

All manners of bacteria are everywhere.

And the only difference with snow, David, is it accumulates.

In the snow.

What happens when it rains every day?

It all washes into the storm drains and winds up where?

In the East River and the Hudson River.

And I'd say the only difference is it's concentrated when the snow melts because it accumulates.
