The dihydrogen monoxide hoax involves calling water by the unfamiliar chemical name "dihydrogen monoxide" (DHMO), and listing some of water's effects in an alarming manner, such as the fact that it accelerates corrosion and can cause severe burns. The hoax often calls for dihydrogen monoxide to be regulated, labeled as hazardous, or banned. It illustrates how the lack of scientific literacy and an exaggerated analysis can lead to misplaced fears.[1]........................

History[edit]
A 1983 April Fools' Day edition of the Durand Express, a weekly newspaper in Durand, Michigan, reported that "dihydrogen oxide" had been found in the city's water pipes, and warned that it was fatal if inhaled, and could produce blistering vapors.[3] The first appearance of the hoax on the internet was attributed by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette to the so-called "Coalition to Ban Dihydrogen Monoxide",[4][5] a parody organization started by UC Santa Cruz student Craig Jackson following the on-campus postings and initial newsgroup discussions.

Kids are mean.:D

Party Pooper!

Anyone that has to look up what dihydrogen monoxide is failed Science class in 4th or 5th grade. H2O is pretty simple to remember. And to call it a hoax is flat wrong. Every one of those graphics is 100% truth.

This one has been racing in LeMons for years..

You have to admire the automatic denial reflex of strupgolf.

It's just as strong as the environmental alarmist mentality.

But to be in denial of a fraud or a joke is too many layers of humor for me to sort out.
