Re: Dihydrogen Monoxide

This made me laugh...

Some of the well-known uses of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:

- by both the KKK and the NAACP during rallies and marches,

- by the clientele at a number of bath houses in New York City and San Francisco,

- by the semi-divine King Bhumibol of Thailand and his many devoted young working girls in Bangkok.

I think the next time I march divinely to a bath house, whilst wearing a sheet over my head, I should give it a try.

Re: Dihydrogen Monoxide

H2O - the basic of all life - only toxic when fluoride, chlorine, etc are added.
Fortunately our council refused to allow fluoride to be added - other areas of UK get 'medicated'.

The local supply is heavily chlorinated. I filter any that passes my lips (even use filtered in cooking). I have a filter on my showerhead.

More controversially, I 'spin' mine.

There are some very funny Penn and Teller videos on you tube that might be worth a look G

Give it again, and say 'Read this...'
