As long as I lived I doubted that I'd ever find better tasting water than this

Matt had been one bubbly being of discovery once we had pulled free of the coral reefs He was fascinated by the water of the lagoon as et fresh water in the middle of the sea?

It wasn't just any freshwater either It was the best tasting water I'd ever had and I actually felt like I was better off physically since I'd been drinking it

"It's not methane that's for sure" Matt said introspectively

"What's not lanced up, "The bubbles in the water I've seen water bubble like this before in the Gulf of Mexico, but there it was because offrom pockets in the ocean floor If all these bubbles were oon would go up like a fireworks factory"

"What is it then? What's causing the bubbles?" I asked

"I think its oxygen Eli, believe it or not It's like a big fish tank with highly oxygenated water Perhaps that's how people ular air when they're in it"

"Why is it so pure and se're surrounded by a sea as salty as the one topside?" Jim asked

Matt turned to him and said, "It's ahappens with the Amazon River in South A outward pushes the saltwater back It's possible to still drink fresh water from the sea two hundred miles off the coast of Brazil at where the Aine the coral reefs help keep the salinity of the sea at bay as well As to the water's sweetness I think it's high in pH value, which h metal deposits below that raise the pH level of the water"

"Don't those expensive water treatment systems you can buy topside rely on platinurinned big, "Yes they do and it's a good guess that the Earth's core is made up of such et a chance to get out of here we s old on the market" Matt finished with exuberance

I didn't really care about the possibility of a lucrative trade in platinum or some other rare metal or mineral In fact I really didn't care to return to the surface with all its technological chaos and lack of positive virtues at all
