This stuff is spring water, enriched with Fulvic acid, giving it a black color, with 77 minerals and a source of tons of antioxidants. tons more stuff about it on the site. MAD expensive though, however would look pretty badass drinking black water.

Agreed. Bottled water may be one of my biggest complaints. WHY DO YOU NEED A NEW BOTTLE EVERY GOD DAMN TIME YOU DRINK?!?! i carry a nalgene with me everywhere i go, and just cant see who the hell would buy bottled water, just to throw out the bottles, when its just as easy to spend $5 on waterbottle and fill it up anywhere you go. i just dont get it.

even if it tastes normal, and has all the benefits everyone says it does, no one will buy it. it will be like when heinz made blue and green ketchup. its a mind over matter asthetic thing, and the black color is going to deter people for sure.

Sun is not attracted to black; black absorbs more light waves from the sun, converting the energy into heat. The only thing "sun", which I guess means light, is attracted to is potentially immensely massive objects with enough gravity to actually pull in light.

let's not forget pink, orange, and blue. Also, does anyone remember the blue french fries that were out around the same time? I had blue fries and green ketchup once.

I always love the scientific language they throw at people to get them to buy stuff. Next time you see a commercial that tells you "natural ingredients like carrots"... ask yourself, why does my body need these natural ingredients? Arsenic is natural for fuck sake.
I mean i'm not actually sure what the natural pH levels of the human body are, but when they just throw out there that it's got a pH of 9 and will therefore decrease acidity in your body, is that necessarily a good thing? Natural waters occur at around 6 pH, and as pH is a negative logarithm of the hydronium ion concentration, that's more than just a linear increase of 3 in hydronium ions. this is just retarded. Anyone know more chemistry that could back up there pH claims?

My good sir you seem to fail to understand the meaning of at least a few words... Although you could be very well be invalid, I believe what you were trying to ask was why your statement was invalid. Also, even if "sun" was attracted to black objects, the correct term would have been light...

Too bad I've never even heard of any of those retailers..

Looks cool though, I would buy a bottle and probably never get one again.
