Very well done in terms of content and your delivery, Dr Bradbury. This topic is so interesting to me. I earned a BS in finance but really wanted to go into oceanography. Unlike many places in the US and the world, we are spoiled by our greatest resource, the Great Lakes. However, having an ample supply of water is one thing, having an abundant supply of clean drinking water is another. How our water tables change and how long the deep aquifer tables cycle is fascinating. Did you say some up to 1,000 years? I grew up in the north suburbs of Chicago and we always had Lake Michigan water. We didn't need a water softener. I retired and moved to Twin Lakes, a few years ago. I have said to many of my friends that I took good drinking and bathing water for granted until I moved to Twin Lakes. This water is horrible, I go through about 50 gallons of Culligan bottled water/month and that is just for me to drink, make ice cubes, and cook with. I selected the 5-gallon Culligan water bottles from a spring in Nothern Wisconsin. (Not distilled or filtered) It tastes the best. You spoke about the deep wells that go down 2,200 feet. Is that water generally much cleaner than the shallow wells? Assuming the casing goes down to the deep source? One would think so. The twin lakes of Elizabeth and Marie are very clear and Lake Geneva is only 25 minutes to the west. I had heard many moons ago that Lake Geneva and Lake Zurich, Il were connected by the same deep aquifer. Is this true? How long the will these lakes remain clean, clear, and healthy to swim in? I have taken a ton of aerial photos and videos with my drones of LG and Twin lakes. I am seeing more and more algae through the ice and that is concerning. Both lakes this summer were flagged for certain periods because of the bad algae blooms. From what I have read, more and more very clean lakes in Wisconsin are suffering the same fate. How hard is it to legislate what the farmers can use in their fields? Is it a pipe dream to think that one day, farmers would not be able to use pesticides within a 10- 20 miles radius of lakes? When you look at the topography, both LG and Twin Lakes basically are sitting on big bowls. Thanks again for your wonderful, easy-to-understand, presentation.
