Plastics Guide

I got an email from someone at Stanford asking about their lost Nalgene bottle. This once again tripped the question in my head about why the Nalgene bottle became so popular a few years ago. I was sure there must be something special about them that made people so eager to use them over other water bottles. Were they infused with anti-bacterial agents to keep the bottles from getting the funk? Nope. Were they special super non-toxic plastic? Apparently not.

But that did lead me to a special Guide to Plastics that is the most concise, straight forward thing I've seen on the subject. One page, and I feel like I can quickly and easily make decent choices about the plastics I use.
