Given that Moores Pond is almost pure dihydrogen monoxide, I demand a
reduction in my property taxes!

Thanks, Jason.
I for one was totally ignorant of DHMO. I knew about radon, and that the
Marcellus shale fields have high uranium content...but this is new to me.
On another note:
If I haven't said so on the L, let me say 'thanks so much' for the vote
that passed the glyphosate ban. Glyphosate will be banned nationwide,
sooner or later, and you put us squarely ahead of the curve.
We made history that night. You made me proud to be a Warwick resident.
Thanks again,

Hi all,
With the recent discussion surrounding the use of glyphosates, I was
astonished to discover that very few people in town have been made
aware of the dihydrogen monoxide situation in Warwick.
Dihydrogen monoxide (or DHMO) is a highly corrosive substance that can
cause severe burns, and is often used as an industrial solvent and
coolant. It is a primary constituent of acid rain, and is a major
contributor to soil erosion all around the world.
The U.S. government does not consider DHMO to be a health threat -
some municipalities even add it to their public water supply to help
maintain PH levels! But if it corrodes metal, why would you want to
put it in your body?!
It is present in the ground here in Warwick in large concentrations,
and I think residents should be made aware of the situation.
For more information, and to get the facts, look here:
