Found and thought it was worth sharing
A student at Eagle Rock Junior High wan first prize at the Greater Idaho
Falls Science Fair, April 26. He was attempting to show how conditioned
we have became to alarmists practicing junk science and spreading fear
of everything in _ In his project he urged people to sign a
petition demanding strict control artical elimination of the chemical
dihydrogen monoxide."
Fad for plenty of good reasons, since:
it can cause 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 effectiveness of automobile brakes
it has been found in tumors of terminal cancer patients
He asked 50 people if they supported a ban of the chemical.
I (43) said yes,
I six( 6) were undecided,
I and only ane (l) knew that the chemical was water.

wouldn't the fact that it contributes to erosion make it a dead giveaway?

Rockaman (10/06/2012) [-] Read 'Dihydrogen Monoxide' and thought WTF? Then I realised the student was a troll :)

Too bad it doesn't work on anyone who remembers an inkling of chemistry

Seriously though, if you want dangerous chemicals, look at Hydroxic acid.
-It can be lethal in quantities of just 5 fluid ounces
-It causes explosive reactions with all the Alkali Metals
-It conducts electricity very well in its natural state and causes the deterioration of electric systems when in contact with them
-Accidental inhalation can kill quite quickly
-It corrodes most metals
-Despite its lethality, somehow it is not classified as a dangerous ssubstance by the U.S. Government

Funny how you can win a competition by copying Pen and Teller..

Hydroxyl acid ,Hydrogen oxide, Dihydrogen monoxide (DHMO), Hydrogen monoxide. Dihydrogen oxide,Hydrogen hydroxide,Hydric acid,Hydrohydroxic acid,Hydroxic acid,Hydrol and μ-Oxido dihydrogen take your pick all are correct but are not recognized by the IUPAC, the so called hoax is also irrelevant because it doesn't factor in people learning about the thing before going ape shit but It'd be more entertaining if he'd given the people a chance to look it up or something :D

sketchysketchist (10/06/2012) [-] Yeah, I think they did this in penn & teller bullshit.
Just comes to show you how easily you can fool someone with big words and basic science.

gijigsaw (10/06/2012) [-] I'm actually using this as a science project already. I was on a website looking for a good idea, and this popped up.

droner (10/06/2012) [-] Last year my chem class caused a dihydrogen monoxide scare for a week and a half before admitting it was a hoax and was in fact just water. Was pretty fantastic
