   I was reading through snoops today and came accross this gem of a science project: "a 7th grader wins the science fair with a project on the dangers of dihydrogen monoxcide"
   My Chemistry training kicked right in and I knew exactly what it is, but could see by calling the chemical this instead of its usual name you can get people to believe that there is a dangerous chemical being used by everyone.

   here is the link, though if you can figure out what it is without you are a chemist too, heehee

   A few politicians in nz have been caught by people trying to warn them on the dangers :)
   Think our politicians need to go back to school.

   Dihydrogen monoxide, dihydrogen monoxide, every where,
   And all the boards did shrink ;
   Dihydrogen monoxide, dihydrogen monoxide, every where,
   Nor any drop to drink.
