If all the good ideas are already taken, why can't I find anyone selling this thing?

Plastics are poison. There I go...sounding like a hippie again. But it's true. I'll admit I was one of the biggest skeptics about BPA messing with your hormones and causing cancer when they first started talking about it in mainstream media about 4 years ago. But I'm a convert.

But even BPA free plastics aren't totally safe.  In fact, some BPA-free plastics are even worse at transferring Estrogen-Affect chemicals that non-BPA plastic. So what's a mom to do?  All I want is a cup I can drink from without poisoning myself.

Oh, I have a stainless steel water bottle. But that's hard to use when you are driving a manual shift car, walking, talking on the phone, or doing anything other than standing still and drinking. So I really want a straw, too. And a lid (in case I slosh). And It needs to hold 16-24 ounces because any smaller and I'd be refilling it a lot. I guess I'm kind of picky.
