Gov. Rick Snyder will be drinking H2O from Flint, hoping it doesn't have too much Pb (that's the chemical sign for lead). 

Snyder announced Monday he'll drink filtered tap water drawn from a Flint home for next 30 days, reports Chad Livengood of the Detroit News. 

“I completely understand why some Flint residents are hesitant to drink the water and I am hopeful I can alleviate some of the skepticism and mistrust by putting words to action,” Snyder said in a statement. “Flint residents made it clear that they would like to see me personally drink the water, so today I am fulfilling that request. And I will continue drinking Flint water at work and at home for at least 30 days.”
