Default Dihydrogen Monoxide crisis

Dihydrogen Monoxide is a substance we should all be concerned about.

It's a chemical used in many settings including the manufacture of styrofoam and is even a byproduct of nuclear power plants. Today it has become prevalent in our water supply - and it is a fact that high concentrations of it exists in just about every reservior and lake in America and Europe. It's prevalent in pesticides - and it can't even be washed out from the fruits and vegetables you bring home.

Dihydrogen Monoxide is known to cause exessive sweating, urination. It affects the kidneys mainly but can affect blood pressure and electrolyte balance of the human body.

We need to do something about this before it gets out of hand.

*FYI - Dihydrogen Monoxide = H20 (i.e. water)

Funny thing...the advert above your thread (for me at least) reads:

"You know anyone who suffers from Alzheimers?"

Ironic

The more I read this thread, the more I realize that I hate being just 11 years old, unable to recognize chemicals unless their chemical abbreviation is mentioned, and the worst part is...I'M STILL IN 7TH GRADE!!!!!!!!!

I loved chemistry when I was in school. I had a teacher who made it a point to blow something up everyday in class. Sure kept our attention.
