Chlorates & chloramines are added to make it "safe" to drink straight out of the tap, but they dissipate to the air after a day left to the elements.
False, chlorine will dissipate at room temp and pressure and it takes a few hours at most (some say most of the chlorine will evap within 10-15 mins) . Chloramine requires filtration and chemical treatment to remove. It will not dissipate on its own.

You are correct. Or should I say your statement is more accurate than mine was.

Don’t know of any mains in Australia using chloramine but it’s worth keeping an eye out for.
Chloramine is now the primary disinfectant used in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney drinking water supplies.

I have rain water on tap at home and when im in town or even more so in Melbourne and Sydney the water just stinks. Tastes crap to.

Pretty dense.

I won't pretend that I'm an experienced & well-accomplished grower (I fuck-up more than I succeed:o), but this is just one of MANY jars that I managed to pull from my outdoor IB last season:

The degree of trim isn't the best, but they're all pretty solid & I GUARANTEE (before anyone asks!) that there were no fucking PGR's involved in the grow. Whether I did well (or not) is a moot point. I don't fucking care, 'cos it's perso only.

Any reason you went with the $1200 table trimmer you bought (with the bowl that you reckon is crap) over a unit that's a quarter the price?

OK. Maybe that's why this one comes with 6x replacement blades?

Just tossing-up some options here, as the idea of speeding-up the trimming ordeal has a certain appeal....
