LOL, just found this Isaac Send a noteboard - 12/12/2009 10:24:59 AM

Was looking up the MSDS for isobutanol for another thread, came across this rather interesting one:

Dihydrogen monoxide (also known as hydric acid) is responsible for injury, death, and property damage all over the world. Visit the Dihydrogen Monoxide Research Division online at www.dhmo.org, or send email to info@dhmo.org for more information.

Our potatoes have been sprouting since, well... ever. And I don't think we buy them organic. *NM* Ghavrel - 10/12/2009 01:11:45 AM 406 Views

Our eyes grow and green up a little, but that's minor compared to when you buy organic. nossy - 10/12/2009 02:06:37 AM 562 Views

Maybe. Ours start putting out those little bud... things. *NM* Ghavrel - 10/12/2009 02:32:28 AM 276 Views

Yeah. The "eyes" bud.

nossy - 10/12/2009 02:58:16 AM 553 Views

Sheesh. danskyw4lker - 10/12/2009 01:16:03 AM 630 Views

Joel Salatin is my hero. *NM* Mad Cow Bomber - 10/12/2009 02:46:41 AM 433 Views

I really have to challenge many of these Isaac - 10/12/2009 03:36:05 AM 583 Views

And that is fine. Read the opening paragraph. It's not a scientific study.

nossy - 10/12/2009 02:29:53 PM 607 Views

Nevertheless... Isaac - 10/12/2009 03:14:19 PM 603 Views

Omg, you are such a party-pooper! nossy - 10/12/2009 05:26:18 PM 529 Views

LOL, I actually am not the bane of all new ideas Isaac - 10/12/2009 06:19:06 PM 539 Views

but ag degrees and education make us biased, didn't you know that? LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 06:28:44 PM 551 Views

Re: but ag degrees and education make us biased, didn't you know that? Isaac - 10/12/2009 07:01:14 PM 596 Views

LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 07:08:09 PM 610 Views

Eeeeyuck Isaac - 10/12/2009 07:18:10 PM 628 Views

Pft, so you say.

nossy - 10/12/2009 08:19:00 PM 592 Views

omigod cheese didn't you read that bit about ARTIFICIAL HORMONES?!?!?! LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 06:22:11 PM 482 Views

You wouldn't believe the dangers involved in cheese Isaac - 10/12/2009 07:08:48 PM 546 Views

did you know instead of bacteria... LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 07:15:15 PM 517 Views

I'm pretty sure I just took a pill with about 500 million bacteria in it. Is that bad for me too?

nossy - 10/12/2009 07:18:29 PM 418 Views

dihydrogen monoxide should not be ignored!! LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 07:20:59 PM 588 Views

T'is my civic duty

Isaac - 10/12/2009 07:30:42 PM 572 Views

he's one of the mega-nerd professors who has a grudge. LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 07:41:19 PM 493 Views

Probably not even a trekkie either Isaac - 10/12/2009 07:53:17 PM 490 Views

LOL, just found this Isaac - 12/12/2009 10:24:59 AM 623 Views

Potentially fatal, you know salmonella is a bacteria right? Isaac - 10/12/2009 07:40:54 PM 534 Views

Thank you *NM* motionsickness - 10/12/2009 03:01:32 PM 377 Views

Hmm. cabbage - 10/12/2009 04:52:48 AM 623 Views

You don't eat apples? danskyw4lker - 10/12/2009 05:13:56 AM 577 Views

I do, but not the ones he's talking about. *NM* cabbage - 10/12/2009 01:04:16 PM 283 Views

Health aside, farmed Salmon just tastes a bit horrible. Liam - 10/12/2009 11:57:34 AM 560 Views

that would depend on how it has been farmed. *NM* jh - 10/12/2009 01:08:33 PM 261 Views

Probably. I guess I've just been unlucky. *NM* Liam - 10/12/2009 01:31:15 PM 306 Views

Meh. LiterateDog - 10/12/2009 12:19:18 PM 413 Views

See what I said to Isaac.

nossy - 10/12/2009 02:33:24 PM 568 Views

I'm always a bit dubious on food health scare stories snoopcester - 10/12/2009 12:34:29 PM 411 Views

Remember when tomatoes gave you cancer? *NM* cabbage - 10/12/2009 05:31:50 PM 285 Views

Yeah.... ah, good times

*NM* snoopcester - 10/12/2009 05:36:10 PM 266 Views

Hm. I actually refuse to eat non-farmed marine fish of any kind. Morgawse - 10/12/2009 01:24:26 PM 653 Views

Rod caught tuna snoopcester - 10/12/2009 05:37:42 PM 516 Views

There aren't enough tuna left. Morgawse - 10/12/2009 06:25:19 PM 542 Views

aren't there a few species that are actually better to harvest? LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 06:30:42 PM 438 Views

If you catch them with rods, I suspect it is sustainable. jh - 10/12/2009 08:17:49 PM 662 Views

who the hell wants to fish in the middle of the ocean?? LadyLorraine - 10/12/2009 08:29:43 PM 528 Views

You'd totally have to be on a boat or something. jh - 10/12/2009 09:55:20 PM 484 Views

I love deep sea fishing.

*NM* Rebekah - 10/12/2009 11:50:39 PM 300 Views
