They did such a good job imitating all the 'threat of the day' sites out there on the web.
I guess DHMO is one dangerous chemical. Too bad the EPA won't take any action. Did you hear about the city that tried to take action to reduce the DHMO threat? It's mentioned at the end of the Snopes article: Urban Legends Reference Pages: Toxin du jour (Dihydrogen Monoxide)
In March 2004 the California municipality of Aliso Viejo (a suburb in Orange County) came within a cat's whisker of falling for this hoax after a paralegal there convinced city officials of the danger posed by this chemical. The leg-pull got so far as a vote having been scheduled for the City Council on a proposed law that would have banned the use of foam containers at city-sponsored events because (among other things) they were made with DHMO, a substance that could "threaten human health and safety."
