Oh My! I promise not to consume, transport, trade, use on, or add dihydromonoxide in anything I use, eat, or wash with. Duh... H2O is not our friend, right?

A warning: dihydromonoxide is one of the most powerful solvents there is. Never use it on your car!

Hydro - atoms of Hydrogen
Mon - 1

Recently an environmental group wanted to add DHMO to our water supply to prevent dehydration. Luckily some knowledgeable citizens started a petition drive to stop it. That stuff rots your brain.

AusS2000, you're a bigger smartass than I am. I didn't inquire as to the chemical formula, but only what the hell DHMO actually is. My minor was in chemistry, so formulae are not totally foreign to me.
