    Dihydrogen monoxide (or "DHMO") is a dangerous chemical that the government refuses to ban!

    Some effects of dihydrogen monoxide are:
    • Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
    • Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
    • Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
    • DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
    • Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
    • Contributes to soil erosion.
    • Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
    • Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
    • Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
    • Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
    • Given to vicious dogs involved in recent deadly attacks.
    • Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere, and in hurricanes including deadly storms in Florida, New Orleans and other areas of the southeastern U.S.
    • Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.

    The fact that the government won't ban this stuff is crazy! We need to get rid of dihydrogen monoxide NOW!

    Not everyone is a complete moron who failed 7th grade science.

    That being said, it would seem silly to ban water. It is essential to life.

    Hydrated hydronium hydroxide. The most potent greenhouse gas, and the most common pulmonary toxin.
