h: im not afraid to admit i dont know something. i know what the prefixes mean, but i guess its just actually putting it together. :dunno:

would you like a cup of dihydrogen monoxide? probably not h:

 

I know....I am just messing with ya

 

That happened to Congress too.

They all believed in the H20 scare.

 

i didnt know what the hell that was either....but then again, its not my job to know anyway.

 

hahaha i think this is the site that the "paralegal" did their research on http://www.dhmo.org/ :chuckles:

 

:lmao: I thought about tricking HAN about the "dihydrogen monoxide scare" once to see who would know what it was and who wouldn't but I just didn't bother. I did trick a certain member though who will remain anonymous unless he wishes to speak up. :exnbp:

To what Will said, I know where he's coming from. I also showed that dhmo page to my brother who's an engineer. He didn't trip out about it but he just kept reading the page. It didn't click right away that it was water. So basically, I think it's normal people for people to mistakenly accept things they read at face value.

But I still think everyone should take chemistry.
