Why does one change ice trays on Sunday?

Cuz that's the day that I'm in the church.

I empty them into the ice bin, then refill them at the drinking
fountain. I don't trust one-handle faucets to deliver cold water that
isn't contaminated with water from the filthy hot-water tank.

By "change ice trays" I had assumed that you meant physically changing
them for others... for some reason :-)

Re rust in tank? I thought that now days all hot water heaters had
either glass lined or stainless tanks?

Re drinking rusty water... Don't people take "iron pills"?

I've explained to my husband several times that I've *seen* the inside
of a hot-water tank, but he knows that the only possible reason for
objecting to hot water in the cold water is that it raises the
temperature and the rise is much too small to measure, therefore I
have no reason not to want a one-handle faucet in the kitchen, where I
always want either hot or cold, and two-handle faucets in the
bathrooms, where I always want warm water. So my house is no
exception to the general insanity.

Ah, well, it's *sterile" filth.

One of the teachers at the pre-school told me that she's grateful that
I keep the ice bin full -- she makes at least one ice pack every day.

Which is good news. Kids are *supposed* to collect minor wounds. How
else are they going to learn how to avoid major wounds?

Too often we hear "Newly-licensed sixteen-year olds kill themselves!
We must raise the driving age and be careful that they don't mature or
gain experience during the delay!"

Twelve is the latest possible age to start teaching children the rules
of the road.
