Dangerous Quantities of DHMO Found and Used Throughout The Villages
 

Home owners and new home buyers should be aware of the large quantities of the hazardous chemical DHMO (dihydrogen-monoxide) that is being used in large quantities and stored throughout The Villages by the developer and district government. This stuff is very dangerous and its presence is only passively disclosed during the closing process. The developer and their unscrupulous realtors are intentionally not disclosing the extensive use of DHMO during the construction process and in some cases are even go so far as sighting this dangerous chemical as a benefit and added value to home buyers in order to fatten their own wallets.

Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid. Its basis is the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, a species shown to mutate DNA, denature proteins, disrupt cell membranes, and chemically alter critical neurotransmitters. The atomic components of DHMO are found in a number of caustic, explosive, and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol.

Each year, Dihydrogen Monoxide is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths and is a major contributor to millions upon millions of dollars in damage to property and the environment. Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:

• Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
• Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
• Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
• DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
• Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
• Contributes to soil erosion.
• Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
• Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
• Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
• Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
• Given to vicious dogs involved in recent deadly attacks.
• Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere, and in hurricanes including deadly storms in Florida, New Orleans and other areas of the southeastern U.S.
• Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.

Please warn your friends and family about the dangers of this chemical.

Well, let me be the first to ask .... Why is it here in TV? What is it used for in TV? If it is as dangerous as you say, who is monitoring it or administering it?

My question too is what is it being used for?

Very strong accusation. And good explanation of the chemical.
But, where is the support of the accusation??

What specific products are "the developer" and "city government" using and storing that are any different than like products used by other developers and municipalities all across the nation? Please be specific as I fail to see in you post or linked article specific references why The Villages is such a greater risk than anywhere else.

Without documenting specific violations to existing health and building codes, I think "fear mongering" best suits your post.

It is water.

I hate it when my golf ball goes in the Di-hydrogen Mon-oxide (H2O).

And there are sink holes too.


:faint:

Oh my!

The dihydrogen monoxide hoax involves calling water by the unfamiliar chemical name "dihydrogen monoxide", and listing some of water's effects in a particularly alarming manner, such as accelerating corrosion and causing suffocation. The hoax often calls for dihydrogen monoxide to be banned, regulated, and labeled as dangerous. It illustrates how a lack of scientific literacy and an exaggerated analysis can lead to misplaced fears.

Why was this even posted in a serious thread instead of a prank?

So, am I to understand that when my husband comes home from paddling on the dragon boat at LSL, the obnoxious smell in his clothing is caused by this chemical?

Ha ha. What a waste of time.

:1rotfl::1rotfl:
It's in TV ice and coffee as well!

Yes folks this was a joke. Thank you Gracie for being the first voice of reason this morning. DHMO or water is a bigger problem than the blasting or prison is, in other words, none of these are problems worth worry ourselves over.
Take time to enjoy life and stop worrying over little things we cannot change.

:a040:OP, thanks for a good laugh!:a040::a040:

Florence involves a lot of this chemical.

The thread is amusing though as something quite different from the usual post.

Ha Ha you got me on that one. But I agree some of the things discussed here seem to have little importance but generate much discussion. Just remember that life is hazardous to your health so live each day to the fullest.

But if you see it on the internet it has to be true. Like and share with all your friends. Let's make this go viral.

Somebody has a lot of time on their hands.

I appreciate your sense of humor, PLUS all the great videos you have contributed that also contribute to our knowledge. Please continue the fine work.

:agree:

If you don't have anything nice to say ... which is why I rarely discuss restaurants. For one thing, the first time I posted how much DH and I enjoyed a specific item at some restaurant I was rebuked. Yep, it's true. Ouch! But I still came back so I got over it. And since then there really haven't been any restaurants that we like a lot. But I guess in order to really enjoy our meals, we need to ask the waiter to hold the DHMO (dihydrogen-monoxide). On second thought, hold mine and give DH extra -- he says there's nothing that can compare to an extra helping of DHMO.

Can you imagine being wrong about how you liked something? Good thing we have people here who can point that out for us.

As long as it's not heavy water it is probably good for us in moderation. Heavy water - Wikipedia

However too much of a good thing can sometimes be deadly. Water intoxication - Wikipedia

Thanks for the laugh. I have pulled this story on my students over the years.

Ok, so the one thing I said in the original post that was inappropriate and inaccurate is calling the realtors unscrupulous, that was unfair and inappropriate. To all the realtors out there who read the post and were offended please accept my most humblest of apologies, this was meant as a joke and not to offend.

That being said, everything else in the post and link provided were true. DHMO can be dangerous. It’s all in the words you use, and the words are more dangerous than the DHMO itself.

Goldwingnut, I hereby present you with an honorary Emily Litella award. Very nicely done. Did you write this?
