Would you ban it?


Question:
Dihydrogen monoxide is a dangerous compound that is under, it would seem, no control at all. In fact, it is being found in many of the products you can buy at the store!

It causes excessive sweating and vomiting
it is a major component in acid rain
it can cause severe burns in its gaseous state
accidental inhalation can kill you
it contributes to erosion
it decreases the effectiveness of automobile brakes
it has been found in the tumors of terminal cancer patients


Do you believe we should have strict control, if not total elimination of this chemical?

Answers:
Oh, absolutely. If we have a government war on dihydrogen monoxide that's as effective as the war on drugs, we'll be DHMO free by . well, by then maybe we'll have a government smart enough to figure out what DHMO is.
water? nahhhh
I would,definitly,but it depends on if they CAN eliminate or have strict control of the chemical.I believe they can,but they could be trying,but can't.
You left out fish dying in it.
no idea lol
No, but I hear people can drown in it.
It's just water, so i suggest we don't. Unless you want to die, of course... (look at me, i ruined the illusion!)
This is an old trick to see how gullable people are. This illustrates how the lack of scientific knowledge and an exaggerated analysis can lead to misplaced fears.
dihydrogen monoxide in chemical symbols looks like this: h2o. this is water and water is the basis of life so i think you've got your chemicals mixed up. if its a major component of acid rain it must be either sulfur dioxide or a nitrogen oxide.
