SoCal city falls victim to Internet hoax, considers banning items made with water

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.
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.


Haha, I've been to that website here it is, the fact page won't work so look at this cache. There are even more websites I mean look at this.

dihydrogen monoxide = H2O
Di= 2 Mono=1
