Ran across this doing some light reading and thought you'd all be interested. Sounds like some pretty scary stuff, doesn't it?

Two hydrogens and an oxygen eh? :huh:
As part of an effort to increase safety in the workplace a few years back, I had everyone sign a document to state they had read and understood the risks of DHMO, and had all DHMO bottles labelled with appropriate cautions
Modern SDS's use simpler language, and my current boss is a chemistry major, so I doubt I could get away with it again.
Edit: just checked a 2013 SDS,
That's about as good as it gets, the rest is all pretty dull.
Though it does have the LD50 for Rats and a warning about explosions if mixed with sodium metal

SDS for DHMO wrote: "INHALED
Acute overexposure: Inhalation can result in asphyxiation and is often fatal.
Chronic overexposure: Chronic inhalation overexposure not encountered."

“Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man.” -Zhuangzi
“Though, as the crusade presses on, I find myself altogether incapable of staying here in saftey while others shed their blood for such a noble and just cause. For surely must the Almighty be with us even in the sundering of our nation. Our fight is for freedom, for liberty, and for all the principles upon which that aforementioned nation was built.” - Patrick “Madman of Galway” O'Dell

Don't forget it's also a performance enhancing drug used by almost all professional, and even amateur, athletes.
