Water on the Moon?

Title: Nasa News NASA Spacecraft Impacts Lunar Crater in Search for Water Ice

The Lunar Reconnaisance Orbiter space craft began its expirament to discover if there was frozen water on the moon. It crashed many space crafts into a moon crater and observed the debris plume. Sadly the scientist from Nasa says that it will take some time to find out if there is any form of water on the moon. LCROSS team says they will be the first to analize if there is any form of water on the moon and they also say that it may take a couple of weeks to analize.

My thoughts are that if there is any form of water on the moon maybe it isn't sanitary.
One of my questions would be "If there is water will they have enough?"
My reaction was why didn't they find out yet? Can't they observe and study the debris plume now or is it still crashing into the moon?

My conclusion is that the discovery for water on the moon is unknown yet.
