Well golly gee, I think we should form a group and have this stuff
banned from the planet. Look at the people who use it...
by the Church of Scientology on their members and their members'
families,
by both the KKK and the NAACP during rallies and marches,
by pedophiles and pornographers (for uses we'd rather not say here),
by the clientele at a number of homosexual bath houses in New York
City and San Francisco,
historically, in Hitler's death camps in Nazi Germany, and in prisons
in Turkey, Serbo-Croatia, Libya, Iraq and Iran,
in World War II prison camps in Japan, and in prisons in China, for
various forms of torture,
by the Serbian military as authorized by Slobodan Milosevic in their
recent ethnic cleansing campaign,
in animal research laboratories, and
in pesticide production and distribution.
What you may find surprising are some of the products and places
where DHMO is used, but which for one reason or another, are not
normally made part of public presentations on the dangers to the
lives of our family members and friends. Among these startling uses
are: as an additive to food products, including jarred baby food and
baby formula, and even in many soups, carbonated beverages and
supposedly "all-natural" fruit juices
in cough medicines and other liquid pharmaceuticals,
in spray-on oven cleaners,
in shampoos, shaving creams, deodorants and numerous other bathroom
products,
in bathtub bubble products marketed to children,
as a preservative in grocery store fresh produce sections,
in the production of beer by all the major beer distributors,
in the coffee available at major coffee houses in the US and abroad,
in Formula One race cars, although its use is regulated by the
Formula One Racing Commission, and
as a target of ongoing NASA planetary and stellar research.
