Power and Internet outages nationwide...SITREP please

[mthrockmor]

Boo, buddy, your request is illogical.  The only folks that could respond will be those that have not lost internet and power.  Not to thump you my friend but just pointing it out.  Phoenix is fine therefore because I have responded 

Zoney...of course, though when it comes back on they can report it. Also, it is very rare that entire cities go down such as the famed NYC outage in the 1970s. That being said, having large outages in parts of cities, or rolling outages are more common and will make local news though typically note national.

Glad to hear Phoenix is up.

See Rule #14

I take offense at this! I simply said Texas and the SW United States are already part of the Union. The rest is explicitly stated in our laws!

The truth won't be crushed! Anarchy!!  Viva la revolución!

Hogwash.  Here is an article on how fluoride protects our teeth and references the peer reviewed journal article.

Keep your youtube links.  I know about fluoride.  I worked at a uranium refinement facility.  At very low percentages it is extremely beneficial for our teeth, which in turn is beneficial for our health.  Like anything, too much of it can cause problems.

ghi what that message means is that if your kids eats all of it then get medical attention.  the reason for them saying more than used to brushing is because due to weight, age, health, there's no specific amount that you can apply to everybody and say above that you die.

I like toothpaste, I like the taste of it and sometimes I'll eat a bit, been doing it since I was a kid.  never have I had to go to an ER.

I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

I used to work in a bleach factory for my summer job when I was 19.  I knew that according to the law, they had to show me the MSDS if I asked for it.  So I asked for it.  Took a week but they produced it, they acted like it was the first time anyone actually asked.

Anyways, this isn't what they showed me, but its informative: http://www.msdsonline.com/blog/compliance-education/2014/02/12/bleach-sodium-hypochlorite-safety-tips-bleach-safety-instruction

Not that they put bleach in drinking water, different chlorine compound.

[DaveBB]

Bleach is sodium hypochlorite.  Just for economic purposes, water and wastewater companies normally use gaseous chlorine (Cl2).  Once the chlorine is in the water (regardless of whether is it NaOCl or Cl2), it reacts with organic compounds to form chloramines.  Chloramines also disinfect the water and are more stable than molecular chlorine.

So what are the major health problems people are seeing from fluoride and chlorine in our drinking water?  I think it's a case of getting afraid of nothing.  My teeth are healthier than ever.  I haven't contracted cholera or typhoid fever.  Water seems fine to me.  If your health is poor, find out the real cause and stop blaming the water.  Hundreds of millions of other people are drinking it and are fine.
