Update 12/28, 4:36 pm: I'm no farmer or poultry aficionado, but I'm pretty sure chicken eggs aren't supposed to get blue spots and smell like licorice.

You might be asking yourself by now, "hey, why does this guy keep on asking for donations to help West Virginians get clean water and sanitary supplies? I mean, the media isn't covering it and it happened, like, two and a half weeks ago, so what's the big deal?"
Well, hypothetical internet friend of mine, part of the big deal can be explained by this: Just yesterday, the now bankrupt Freedom Industries came out with a statement saying that the amount of chemical spilled into the Elk River was 10,000 gallons, not 7,500 as it was previously reported, and not the 2,000 to 5,000 as was reported before that.
"Did we say 2,000 to 5,000 gallons of 1 potentially toxic chemical? Maybe it was closer to 10,000 gallons of 2 potentially toxic chemicals... Anyone want an Aquafina? I've got an extra in my car."
Oh yeah, and Freedom also neglected to tell the world until last week that there was another random ass chemical that was leaked out with the 4-methylcyclohexane methanol called PPH, which was an assortment of polyglycol ethers that we also know next to nothing about.
So, to sum up, we still don't know exactly what it is that the chemicals that were dumped into West Virginia's water supply do to the human body or the ecosystem at large, we don't know how much of the chemicals was actually dumped into river (if they changed their number twice, why wouldn't they change it again) and the West Virginian and Federal governments have responded with a collective "meh" to the entire crisis, leaving 300,000 residents still unsure as to whether or not their water supply is still toxic or not.
Would you be drinking and bathing in that water?
Exactly. Please donate whatever you can if you haven't already (or if you're a badass and want to again) to our Indiegogo site for the 1st Inaugural Mountaineer Bad Beard-Off for Clean Water
Thanks again for all of your help and your patience.
