Hyponatremia and DHMO

Picking up on Don's theme, we need to do an investigation into the detrimental effects of drinking water:
When too much water enters the body's cells, the tissues swell with the excess fluid. Your cells maintain a specific concentration gradient, so excess water outside the cells (the serum) draws sodium from within the cells out into the serum in an attempt to re-establish the necessary concentration. As more water accumulates, the serum sodium concentration drops - a condition known as hyponatremia.
Consider the possibilities. Lawsuits against Big Water could generate money for the government unheard of since, well, the tobacco industry takedown. Why should Merck and others suffer from crushing regulation and oversight, while Deer Park and Poland Spring pedal their wares unmolested, pocketing enormous profits while exploiting people's addiction to their product? And here's a website dedicated to exposing the hidden dangers of Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO), a compound found in virtually all bottled as well as tap water:
Each year, Dihydrogen Monoxide is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths and is a major contributor to millions upon millions of dollars in damage to property and the environment.
Often used as an industrial solvent, DHMO inhalation can cause death even in small quantities. Maybe this will get McCain on top of this: It has been reported that every major league baseball player has ingested DHMO in an attempt as a performance enhancement supplement!
