Well, it came out in the chemtrails threads that they're comprised of a

hazardous
substance called dihydrogen monoxide. California politicos just found out

about it.

ALISO VIEJO, Calif. - City officials were so concerned about the

potentially
dangerous properties of dihydrogen monoxide that they considered banning

foam cups
after they learned the chemical was used in their production.

Then they learned, to their chagrin, that dihydrogen monoxide - H2O for

short - is
the scientific term for water.
"It's embarrassing," said City Manager David J. Norman. "We had a

paralegal who
did bad research."

The paralegal apparently fell victim to one of the many official looking

Web sites
that have been put up by pranksters to describe dihydrogen monoxide as

"an odorless,
tasteless chemical" that can be deadly if accidentally inhaled.

As a result, the City Council of this Orange County suburb had been

scheduled to
vote next week on a proposed law that would have banned the use of foam

containers
at city-sponsored events. Among the reasons given for the ban were that

they were
made with a substance that could "threaten human health and safety."

This one is reallyyyyyy old!!
