You know what else? Clorox wipes contain dihydrogen monoxide! I can't believe people are using this product ANYWHERE in their home, much less in the kitchen. Don't they know the danger of this chemical?
"Dihydrogen monoxide is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and kills uncounted thousands of people every year. Most of these deaths are caused by accidental inhalation of DHMO, but the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide do not end there. Prolonged exposure to its solid form causes severe tissue damage. Symptoms of DHMO ingestion can include excessive sweating and urination, and possibly a bloated feeling, nausea, vomiting and body electrolyte imbalance. For those who have become dependent, DHMO withdrawal means certain death. Dihydrogen monoxide: is also known as hydroxyl acid, and is the major component of acid rain. contributes to the "greenhouse effect." may cause severe burns. contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape. accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals. may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes. has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients." |
| Dihydrogen monoxide or not, I LOVE the Clorox wipes, thanks to Costco I can buy them in bulk!!! Bring on the Dihydrogen monoxide! |
Thank you. I'm going to take this to my school. I hate that my DC are exposed to so much of this stuff all day long (teachers should be concerned, too). When I was a kid, school smelled like glue and floor wax, not harsh chemicals, which is what my DC smell like when they come home. |
You are a fool. |
OK, this is a joke, you know this right? (I had to make sure since, so many DCUMers are clueless about science--see vaccination threads.) DI (meaning two, 2) hydrogen plus MONO (one, 1) oxide = H20. |

10:50, you are SUCH a killjoy.

np here. I am embarrassingly "green" or eco and have been for years before that was hipster. Whatever. Not a point of pride, just telling you where I come from.
Even I insist on using undiluted bleach around the base of the toilet. Oh lord, the piss. Just when you think that your preschooler boy is going to get the hang of hitting a 1' x 2' target occasionally, he will start playing air guitar with his penis and singing while he goes. l |
The fact that you posted this link tells us that you had to google the term. |
Kudos to you! I was just about to post with "where the hell did you get your information?" and then I read your post. I got a good laugh at the end. |
I wouldn't want to keep bottles of cleaner around in a school. They can be swallowed. It's hard to poison yourself with wipes. |
Hate this site. |
Don't you feel silly now? You should have cracked a book now and then in high school. |
My only problem is that I don't think they actually disinfect anything. So they are just expensive, pre-moistened paper towels. USeful for wiping, but not for disinfecting. |
You know Costco sells big cases of bottled dihydrogen monoxide, too! |
