After reading the earlier kissing bug article I decided to spread the word about dihydrogen monoxide, an environmental substance that kills thousands worldwide every year. Should it be banned? You decide!

If you do not mind big government then by all means try to get it banned. But if you are one of those against excessive government regulation then do not.
I think most people are against government regulations that affects them adversely BUT want the government to do something when they see it as beneficial. Two sides same coin.
Personally I think the site made into a clicky is FUll of caca.
Some uses of DHMO quoted by the article are;
in so-called "family planning" or "reproductive health" clinics,
as a byproduct of hydrocarbon combustion in furnaces and air conditioning compressor operation,
in cult rituals,
by the Church of Scientology on their members and their members' families (although surprisingly, many members recently have contacted DHMO.org to vehemently deny such use),
by both the KKK and the NAACP during rallies and marches,
by members of Congress who are under investigation for financial corruption and inappropriate IM behavior,
by software engineers, including those producing DICOM software and other DICOM software tools,
by popular computer science professors,
by aspiring young adult fiction writers and mental health advocates,
by international travel bloggers.
