I remember always being told not to drink the hot water cause it wasn't clean enough, hot water heaters have a tendency to rust etc, build up scale which is probably good enough for washing. One friend of mine always gave her dishes a cold water splash as the last thing, I assume for the same reason. -Barry Shein, Boston University
