Recently, I was researching some stuff for chemistry and I came across this chemical called DHMO. Information on this chemical can be found here. Due to the appalling nature of this chemical and the lack of stuff done by world governments to improve safety regarding it, I was wondering what you all thought about it.
If someone is skeptical about the reliability of the source I gave, believe the article is a joke, or think that DHMO isn't dangerous or something, then check this spoiler for additional info. If this does not apply to you, then ignore the spoiler and post your opinion.

Be sure to play along with all the ignorant fools! (If a mod thinks the topic is stupid, you don't need my permission to delete it. It's just raining where I am and I wanted to lighten the mood. )
Knowing the truth and knowing what to do with the truth are two completely separate ideas. Learn to distinguish them. OR ELSE.

"Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow." - Denis Waitley

The scary part is that the chemical formula starts with hydrogen. Doesn't that mean it's an acid?Â
It is a Lewis acid, but a very weak one, with a pH of 7. It's also a base too.
Inhalation of this stuff is especially dangerous for children, since they're most likely to drown.
Actually, I've never heard of it getting into your bones. But I know that in many diseases where your body swells, it's because of this stuff. Doctors call it edema.

We definitely should ban DHMO!!It's okay, they wrote it really well. Although I don't agree that we "produce" this substance, since it's just there naturally.
