Just reading this with a look of horror on my face as I have a cabinet FULL of nalgene bottles. So raced to www.rei.com to check out the SIGG bottles and noticed that they also sell a product called ICE TUBES for 5.25 which freezes ice in a tubular shape in order to fit into the bottle opening - yippeee. Thought I'd pass it on.....

I think I read something on snopes.com about some myths regarding plastics and toxicity. Maybe you can find something there...they usually (maybe always) use credible sources.

What about the Camelbak bottle made from Lexan polycarbonate?
