Don't drink the water, Montezuma

This has to be the best media quote of the month/year/whatever:

And while researchers do not yet understand the exact risks from decades of persistent exposure to random combinations of low levels of pharmaceuticals, recent studies — which have gone virtually unnoticed by the general public — have found alarming effects on human cells and wildlife.

Um...can we just take a wild guess here and assume that prolonged exposure to molecules not intended for our bodies is a bad thing?
