On: We don’t trust drinking fountains anymore, and that’s bad for our health

At least in the UK, if you are in any place that serves alcohol, they are legally obliged to provide you free water (most restaurants serve alcohol.)

Thanks for mentioning that. I always thought that this was a myth, but it appears that the obligation to provide free drinking water was introduced in the Licensing Act 2003 (Mandatory Licensing Conditions) Order 2010 [1]. Useful to know.
