The LHBS told a group of us at the monthly forum about this. Scrolling thru I noticed Madison, WI has a bunch of different profiles depending on what well the water source is coming from.

Nice, the problem with the source I have is that it was run through a carbon filter first. So I don't have a true sample. But it gives me an idea if I were to run it through a carbon filter where I would be.

I think the Britta type filters are carbon filters, also can get those under the sink steups and use carbon filter, that would get you pretty close I'd imagine.

I just learned this while listening to a podcast last night. Never viewed it yet but this is good stuff.
Funny, my suburb is bigger than New Orleans yet we're not listed. Wonder if I should post mine.
