"The hoax was apparently created by Eric Lechner, Lars Norpchen and Matthew Kaufman, housemates while attending UC Santa Cruz in 1989, revised by Craig Jackson in 1994, and brought to widespread public attention in 1997 when Nathan Zohner, a 14-year-old student, gathered petitions to ban "DHMO" as the basis of his science project, titled "How Gullible Are We?" "

We need Nathan to run another science project for ethanol! Same title, different day.

I've always thought mixing it with a good Kentucky sippin' whiskey solved all problems ... or so it seems.

You tried to warn them by telling them to watch it before doing anything else! Funny.

Back before WTC one of the leading conspiracy was how Bush is poisoning our water system. (Or allowing us to be poisoned)

I read an article, which seemed to be serious on how Bush is allowing treatment centers to add millions of tons of dihydrogen monoxide into our system.

I got quite a kick out of that one.
