Actually, and I'll sound like a real nerd in saying this, I do, er, I did. My well went dry last Christmas Eve! I had to get a new one drilled (260 feet and lots of water), but it had a trace of iron and a 5.9 ph. I installed a chemical injector to bring the ph up and an iron filter and have great water now, but had acid water for a month prior to installation. Also, given my fondness for margaritas of my own recipe (1 cup tequila, 1/2 cup Gran Marnier, 1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice in a pitcher over ice makes three for me and two for the wife) and grapefruit juice in the morning, I got to thinking about how much acid I was consuming (of the non-Leary kind). It seemed like a lot and research showed it could be a problem. Wanting to rather give up water than tequila, I conducted a few experiments using my trusty swimming pool test strips and chem kit. Amazingly accurate those strips. I'll spare you the details, but let's just say that my low ph has been adjusted appropriately. God knows I wouldn't want any of my nibbly bits corroding due to electrolysis! No one wants leaky nibbly bits.
