Just saw the EPA report warning that high levels of dihydrogen monoxide (DHMO) have been detected in Strawberry Reservoir. The report stated that the clear odorless compound is concerning as it not only is extremely corrosive but could cause fatalities if inhaled.

The only problem is that there isn't enough of it.
