The dihydrogen monoxide incident

Aliso Viejo city officials famously came close to banning styrofoam cups after hearing that "dihydrogen monoxide" was used in their production, neglecting the fact that this substance is actually plain water. A paralegal working for the city found the dhmo.org (http://www.dhmo.org/) website and subsequently proceeded to propose the ban. [1] (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4534017/)
