Ban Dihydrogen Monoxide!

It has been a while since this cause to ban Dihydrogen Monoxide has been taken up, but we can never rest from this horror, here are some of the fact that you must know, taken from the Coalition to ban dihydrogen monoxide website.  Check it out, get educated, tell your family, tell your friends!

The Invisible Killer

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.

Contamination Is Reaching Epidemic Proportions!

Quantities of dihydrogen monoxide have been found in almost every stream, lake, and reservoir in America today. But the pollution is global, and the contaminant has even been found in Antarctic ice. DHMO has caused millions of dollars of property damage in the midwest, and recently California.

Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:

  • as an industrial solvent and coolant.
  • in nuclear power plants.
  • in the production of styrofoam.
  • as a fire retardant.
  • in many forms of cruel animal research.
  • in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical.
  • as an additive in certain “junk-foods” and other food products.

Companies dump waste DHMO into rivers and the ocean, and nothing can be done to stop them because this practice is still legal. The impact on wildlife is extreme, and we cannot afford to ignore it any longer!

The Horror Must Be Stopped!

The American government has refused to ban the production, distribution, or use of this damaging chemical due to its “importance to the economic health of this nation.” In fact, the navy and other military organizations are conducting experiments with DHMO, and designing multi-billion dollar devices to control and utilize it during warfare situations. Hundreds of military research facilities receive tons of it through a highly sophisticated underground distribution network. Many store large quantities for later use.

It’s Not Too Late!

Act NOW to prevent further contamination. Find out more about this dangerous chemical. What you don’t know can hurt you and others throughout the world.

Why couldn’t fancy dress be as cool as this when I was a kid. All I got was the crappy storm trooper masks. Found this over on buzzfeed as 2C2BG, too cute to be geeky.

Update:

It turns out this was done by grimm_hammer for his daughter back in 2008.


It also comes with helmet.

More Jim Corr on TodayFM

Last week I posted the audio of Jim Corr’s first Last Word interview with Matt Cooper where he opposed “The Lisbon Treaty” as it was a stepping stone to a new world order.  As I don’t live in Ireland any more I hadn’t heard that he was back on the Last Word two more time. Unfortunately the audio can no longer be found on the TodayFM website, but due the the magic of the interweb I was able to track them down and reshare them for the world.

First he goes into how he feels that the financial crisis was manufactured by the wealthy to make them even more money using Hegelian dialectic. Every one is involved, Elite bankers, IMF, Washington Consensus etc, etc. This aired 23 April 2009.

The Second audio has Jim back in the studio just before the second vote for the Lisbon Treaty. Jim is staunchly No. It retreads much the same ground as his first interview, but time has not taken the edge off old Jim, still a good listen. I believe it aired 11 Sept 2009.

Jim Corr’s Last Word interview

This is a bit old now, but back May 29 2008 Jim Corr of The Corrs went on the Irish radio show “The Last Word” presented by Matt Cooper. He was brought in because he was against the Lisbon Treaty (Ireland’s first attempt at the vote). When asked why Jim goes into a long discussion about how he feels the treaty is a stepping stone to a new world order. Every one from the Illuminati to September 11th conspiracy theory’s get a look in. It is definitely worth a listen, my favorite line is that he has got a lot of time on his hands now:

I’m a big fan of Gift Grub which is a comedy segment on the Ian Dempsey radio show.  It usually takes some thing weird going on in Ireland and poking a few funny holes in it.  I particularly  like how fast they can turn around content.  This was put out within a day or so.

I actually heard the Gift Grub skit first and was amazed to find out that the original interview was even more bizarre than the Skit.  Sadly the original Gift Grub mp3s are no longer available on the podcasts. So I have uploaded this and another one, where Jim releases a new album, so allow them to live on.  Please check out the website for the new content, it’s brilliant!

As an addendum, in Ireland when you vote for something and the people say No, we keep voting until we get it right, the Lisbon Treaty, like the Nice Treaty, was passed on a second vote.

Clark, it’s way past time you learned — what it means — to be a man!


There is news today of Chris Nolan getting involved with rebooting or restarting the Superman franchise. This is very interesting news to me. I am a bit fan of comics and one of the first I ever read was Frank Millers “Dark Knight Returns“. Written in 1986 it imagines what would happen if Batman got old as til that point we had only ever seen Batman stories with Batman in his late 20s early 30s. The futuristic world that Frank Miller creates is the standard dystopian one with Bruce Wayne retired from the vigilante world for nearly 20 years, all the other super heroes are gone except Superman who is exclusively in the American’s pocket and does what ever he’s told to do. The story was (and still is) very popular, this book and Frank Millers other, Batman: Year One, where largely influential on the time Burton vision for his Batman stories in the late 80s/ early 90s.

I loved Chris Nolan’s first movie, “Batman Begins”, it rebooted the franchise and got away from the camp, neon soaked, toy pushing Joel Shumacher films. There were a lot a features in that movie that also seemed to call back to Frank Millers Batman work in the 80s. I did find it very interesting that he called the second movie, “The Dark Knight”, in the comic book world Batman has been known by this name for years, but the general punters wouldn’t. There is some wishy washy excuse in the movie that Harvey Dent is to be the White Knight to Batman’s Dark Knight. I never bought! Chris Nolan wants to make the move “The Dark Knight Returns”, the name wouldn’t make sense if there was no movie called “Dark Knight” (see Superman and Batman). It would also be nice to move away from the recent Superman emo flick.  While aspects of it looked great it was largely boring.

That’s why the announcement that Chris Nolan is involved in a Superman reboot carries some weight. In “The Dark Knight Returns” Superman features heavily and helps conclude the story when a battle suited 55 year old Batman must face off against Superman and Bruce shows Clark what it is like to be human.

What is not clear to me yet is how long a game Chris Nolan might be playing, is he going to wait until Christain Bale naturally ages enough so that he can plausibly play an older Bruce Wayne/Batman or will he recast, if so who might be the right age and look to play this Batman. My personal choice is … George Cloony, even though Cloony has gone on record and apologised for being the Batman that brought down the franchise. Looking back on the movie he is not the weak point of it, every thing from the script, too many protagonists, antagonists, super sets, super egos got in the way of that move. Clooney however looked like a good Bruce Wayne and I think in 10 years he could look like a good Dark Knight Returns Bruce Wayne, if they forget the nipples he could even look good as Batman.
For those waiting for a “Dark Knight Returns” adaption, be sure to check out the episode called “Legends of the Dark Knight” in the Batman Animated series.  In this episode a few kids tell stories about what they think Batman is like.  One story is Batman’s encounter with the Mutant boss which is lovely lifted whole from the “Dark Knight Returns”.
