I guess if you consider "freezing" an adjective instead of a verb, then it
would make sense. But, most of us didn't read it like that.

In addition to drug stores and grocery stores, another source

this
source of non mineralized water.





Bzzzzzt WRONG, Would you like to try again behind, Door Number Two.
Distilled Water is just what it say's "Distilled". That means it was
made by heating it up to vapor phase, and then recondensing it back to
liquid phase. This causes all the minerals and other impurities that
boil at higher temps to be left in the heating container and only pure
H2O condensing in the receiver. Freezing will only suspend the
impurities in the Ice Crystaline Structure, and they then will remix
with the H2O when thawed out. You better get your money back from the
college your attending, as you didn't learn anything in InOrganic
Chemistry 101.

I get all my Battery Water from Alascom (Longlines Carrier for alaska)
and they have a Triple Distiller at Lena Pt. that supplies all their
Battery Plants in Southeastern Alaska. Rain water is fairly close and
can be used in a pinch, as loing as your not downwind of a Oil or Coal
fired PowerPlant.
