Trigger Mike Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 While driving to work the radio DJ was interviewing a guy who says that kids born in floridated water areas have a higher rate of mental defects, especially among those not breast fed and insteasd given formula with tap water. He said that floride is dangerous to the brain. At first I thought it might explain some of the autism cases out there lately, but then I remembered one of my favorite movies, Dr Strangelove or How I learned to stop worrying and love the Bomb. What a funny movie. In it an Airforce General in charge of a base full of B-52s orders a nuclear attack due to the "Communist conspiricy" to contaminate our bodies with floride, "even ice cream, children's ice cream". "Do you know when floridation began" He asked, and then tied it in to the rise in commuism. Now I gave all my kids floridated water and maybe that explains why one of them does weird things like climb on the roof of his swing set, try to go down the deck hand rail with skates on, go down the slide with skates on, throw mud at peoples houses and then blame it on the kid who never threw a single one.
Captain Woodrow Cahill, SASS # 54363 Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 It's not your imagination Mike. They've known for years the stuff was bad for people. A scientist back in 1930's studied it and found that lab rats became stupid - couldn't run the same maze they had easily navigated earlier - after ingesting fluoride. A Chinese study on kids found it lowered IQ's. The rates of mental retardation were also found to be higher in areas with fluoridated water. It causes brittle bones in women. There's no difference in tooth decay rates between countries that do and those that don't add it to their water. If it really worked, wouldn't the dentists have all gone out of business? A number of countries have stopped doing it because they realized it's no good. It's poison.
Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Dr. Strangelove -- what a classic! Well, boys, we got three engines out, we got more holes in us than a horse trader's mule, the radio is gone and we're leaking fuel and if we was flying any lower why we'd need sleigh bells on this thing... but we got one little budge on them Rooskies. At this height why they might harpoon us but they dang sure ain't gonna spot us on no radar screen!

Utah Bob #35998 Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Flouridation doesn't bother me. I'm careful to not give away my precious bodily fluid though. "FEED ME MANDRAKE!" :lol:
DocWard Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Well, call me a survivalist nut, but I'm just worried about longterm survival.
