I've been using a Nalgene or variations of one for a couple years. I heard that the chemicals may be linked to lowered sperm count but never heard of BPA or bisphenol A (maybe the same chemical).
Even Nalgene the company has information of "safe" alternatives to BPA laden plastic bottles.

LONDON (Reuters) - A study has for the first time linked a common chemical used in everyday products such as plastic drink containers and baby bottles to health problems, specifically heart disease and diabetes.

Until now, environmental and consumer activists who have questioned the safety of bisphenol A, or BPA, have relied on studies showing harm from exposure in laboratory animals.
