Just had to share.

I just had someone PM me concerned about the chemical in my sig. I laughed and told him what it was, but I feel like I should have dragged it out a little longer.

So the next time it happens (I'm sure it will) I'm going to send them to these sites:

http://www.dhmo.org/

http://www.public.iastate.edu/~fds3/index.html

http://xtronics.com/reference/dihydrogen-monoxide.htm

If I play it right, I might even get someone to seriously post a thread about actually trying to get the stuff banned. Should be fun.

Ok i don't understand why I am not dead yet? Explain how it is ingested or inhailed from the aquarium.

According to California everything causes cancer

I helped pass around a petition to get that stuff banned once, it was at a college in Oregon.
We collected several hundred signatures, rolf.

All aquariums on this web-site contain dihydrogen monoixde, a substance known to the state of California to cause death if inhaled into the lungs.

The best thing is that you didn't even spell it correctly

Wait, so you used to collect deadly chemicals while also passing around petitions to have them banned? (I think guppy talks about chemicals in the thread about spilling stuff on your carpet).
