This is true, and it is apparent that women who ingest this are also creating dependant children. Before they are even born, they are being given this substance through their umbillical cord.
Not only is it given to the baby through the umbilical cord, the baby is litterally surrounded by it in the womb as well.
------->was directly exposed to it the other day by surprise while out on a bike trip. NOT FUN. I am still suffering the after effects through sinus problems. This random unexpected exposure has got to stop.
yea man. there is also a high concentration of it near Europe, and it gets carried over here by currents. i say we bomb Europe.
freaking Texans forget there is less oxygen...and WATER...here.....at a mile and above... Littleton looks down on Denver. Literally.
No shit, my lips were chapped for a week straight when I moved here, but I've adjusted. But seriously, what the fuck is up with the bigotry towards Texans in Colorado? I get dirty looks all the time whenever someone spots my tags or my driver's license, when I went to the DMV to get a new license, the lady checking to make sure people had the right paperwork and giving out waiting numbers actually laughed at me when she saw my Texas license. I love it in Colorado, but some of the people are real asshats towards me. Come to think of it, maybe it's the Hydric Acid withdrawal. But yeah, us freaking Texans, coming here and breathing all of your oxygen. We should be ashamed of where we're from.
jesuswas, there really IS less o2 here. and the reason everyone hates Texans is they tend to buy what they like...and they like Colorado. We don't like Californians (esp the James Dobsonites) either. btw, I grew up in Texas, so I feel a similar pain. check out roll call Colorado in travel. I have my non-patented Coloradov Texan v. Californian joke there.
i saw this article at the beginning of the year in biology class. we had to write a page long paper on why it should be banned. i may have been the only person in the class who had the thought "dihydrogen monoxide, 2hydrogen, 1oxygen...uhhh, water?" the next day the teacher told everyone that its water and everybody felt stupid. except for me of course
The response to the "DHMO" petitions is quite interesting, and scary as hell to anybody who cares about scientific literacy or the credibility of the environmental movement. The idea was used by a junior high school student as a science fair project several years ago. He wrote up the "fact sheet" listing the (completely real) hazards of DHMO, and circulated a petition for a ban among the teachers and students. He collected MANY signatures in favor of a ban, reportedly including the principal and at least one science teacher! The results (and the identity of the "toxin") were presented under the title "How Gullible Are We?" He won the science fair.... http://www.snopes.com/toxins/dhmo.htm
