Abstract: The article presents the author's insights on the problems with data of the journal article "Effect of Changing Water Quality on Galvanic Coupling," by G. Boyd and colleagues. The author says that the author gathered data that demonstrates that elevated lead in water arising from galvanic corrosion between copper pipe and direct connections of lead will be short-lived and transient. He analyzes the serious problems with the data, texts, and figures of the article.
