> Together, these two factors have led to large amounts of research into sewage treatment, new technologies, and upgrades nationwide. Just because you apparently are ignorant of them doesn't mean they haven't been occurring. While admittedly ignorant of the specific changes in water and sewage provision, I never suggested they weren't occurring - I said the experience for an end user hasn't really changed much. Even if the water quality has increased tenfold and a city's demand trebled in a decade, we're still pulling water from the tap the same way we were before, and our usage year over year doesn't change that much (on a household basis). My household needs and expectations for water service don't seem any different than 15 years ago, whereas my household needs and expectations for internet service are radically different. Governments do 'big' better than 'fast'.
