navybrandt Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 My favorite page on that website is the one where they talk about DHMO in the dairy industry. The letters from "Hoard's Dairyman" are hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsecaller3414 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 http://www.dhmo.org/ I actually was fooled by this a few years ago, but now that I know more about it, it is hilarious. And it is all true, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navybrandt Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) As someone who works in the nuclear ship building industry. I can confirm that DHMO is, in fact, used in nuclear reactors. Our ships have to be specially designed to operate in a DHMO environment. If the DHMO levels get too high though, the ship actually sinks!

Elsecaller3414 Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Or when there is a breach in the hull... Easy leakage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RippleGylf Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 I've heard that breathing in pure DHMO for just a few minutes can lead to death. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delightful Posted August 10, 2015 Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 ...yeah, you got me. I've tried kicking the habit, but it's just so hard man. Every day I need my fix, or I start going through withdrawl. My throat gets dry, my voice starts getting hoarse, and I get light-headed. I've been trying alternatives, like cow-juice, Liquid Bread, and the blood of the oranges, but nothing seems to cut it... Liquid bread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kipper Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Liquid bread? Oh sí. I guess they don't ever say that in Australia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_bread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RippleGylf Posted August 10, 2015 Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 http://www.dhmo.org/ They showed us this website back in middle school, and one of the students confused it with carbon monoxide, a simple mistake to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsecaller3414 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Whoops. Quite a difference there! Let's just say that I would prefer dihydrogen monoxide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RippleGylf Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 The funny thing was, she told the whole class how much she knew about dihydrogen monoxide and how lethal it was. And then the teacher just says, "You know, it's water, right?" The lesson was on how to find trustworthy websites for research. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navybrandt Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Not just websites but any "News" organization in any form of media. It's also important to differentiate between news and commentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
