I've been warning people about that threat for years. It's amazing how little your average person knows about the threats posed by dhmo.

It's causing a lot of problems in North Cornwall at the moment. There was some sort of massive leakage and they've called in the airforce to help clean the place up.

The Boscastle Incident. The Police have now cordoned off this area. Dangerous stuff.

A topic especially relevant to readers here, as high concentrations of this vile stuff were said to be present in the automatic transmission fluid and wheel bearing grease used by Fuji Heavy Industries in the early 1990s.

It that the junk with 2 hydrogens and an oxygen bonded together? It's really dangerous, if you get in over your head it'll kill you, and if you drink too much you'll spend the entire night in the head... Strangely with all the oxygen in that stuff you can't breath it...

I can't seem to make heads or tails out of this stuff. Of course, I must admit, I'm tripping on acetylsalic acid.

You're not kidding. I'm practically addicted to the stuff. Worse yet, drinking so much makes me go to the bathroom fifteen times a day.

Of course, my employer is practically in bed with the DHMO cartels - we stock a couple dozen varieties of beverages which contain DHMO, free for the employees.

Looked right past that telltale name, I did. Should have taken chemistry in high school. Or maybe I have DHMO on the brain. The very air in these parts is thick with it.
