I have been on some Atlantic Coast CRJs that have those signs that say not to drink the water. The UA planes with little cups in the lav, however, would suggest it's OK.

It says not to drink the lav water? I'll have to check the next time I'm back there -- I've never noticed it. On the CRJ, there are two water tanks, one for the galley water, the other for lav water. They're five gallons each. Both tanks are serviced from the same supply cart, which is filled from "potable water" stations throughout the airport.
