The reason the Silicon wafer would be ruined by touching it is not the fragility. The Sodium from our sweat is highly mobile at processing temps and ruins the balanced conductivity.

Blue Cobalt glass is very cool. Exposure to the UV in sunlight brings out the blue over time.

Yes, Radon would work in a gas discharge light bulb.

Don't you hate it when some jerk-off tries to act all smarty-pants in the comments of a beautiful video?

Hot liquid? I think that's soy sauce. The sodium in it causes nerves to fire primitively. The squid is probably dead. Not any different than those dancing frog leg videos where salt was poured on them.


I am really glad someone mentioned this.

Light on the calories but good sodium.

^ There are fragments of truth in those articles weaved together into a completely incorrect and paranoid narrative. Here's one of the articles you linked:
http://www.naturalnews.com/030868_vaccines_autism.html
Paranoid ranting along the lines of "Oh noes! Table salt contains poisonous Chlorine and Sodium!". The "sources" don't reinforce the narrative of the article, at all.
You have to be a conspiracy theorist to believe these things. Why would medical researchers conspire in this manner? So that they can sell cheap vaccines instead of very expensive medicine to treat disease outbreaks?


Conspire in what manner? Researchers don't sell vaccines. The article says nothing about a conspiracy.

There is no narrative either.

Why waste your time arguing with conspiracy theorists? You should be doing something about your failure at reading comprehension.

BTW "fragments of truth" and "completely incorrect" are contradictory statements.

Drano is caustic, not acid. Sodium Hydroxide not Sulfuric Acid.

I'm done nit picking for now. Enjoy.

Those homeboys are gunna be so full of sodium nitrate they'll be classified as a valuable mineral export resource.

hey, this is something my dude and i were wondering about while we were in the netherlands last year...
in the US most sodas are made with hfcs, but in europe they mostly use real sugar... so we were reading all the soda cans there and none of them listed the sodium content but here they always list the sodium content and it's pretty well known that sodas are high in sodium...
so do they not put the sodium in sodas in europe? or do they just not have to list the sodium content on the nutrition labels?
does the sodium content have something to do with the hfcs content? or are they just adding it to our sodas over here to make us thirstier so we'll drink more soda?


I'm doing a report on salt right now (seriously) and I think we can be pretty sure that an overabundance of sodium in your diet is a bad thing. But don't forget that sodium chloride is what makes shit taste good. Sweet things are always better with a little bit of salt to set them off. I'm pretty sure that sodium is added to pretty much any soda you can buy, including the ones in Europe. The content is higher in diet soda but it's there in regular soda as well. One thing you can be sure of: an excess of sugar in any form is WAY worse for you than an excess of sodium.

they don't list the values on the cans in the netherlands, i was just wondering if thats because they just dont have to or because they don't put sodium in their drinks.

Maybe the Dutch just figured out sugar-inundated drinks are bad for you, all by themselves, without their government's intervention.

nope, we didn't even think to look at diet drinks, but in regular US coca cola, pepsi and dr. pepper there's about 35mg (or micrograms, maybe. been a while and i don't keep soda in the house)... dr. pepper may be a little higher, i think grape soda was a little lower.

I thought that sodium was only high in diet soda.
BTW, cane sugar is also used in soft drinks here in Australia - mainly because we have lots of cane farmers and few corn farmers - so it's cheap. It would probably be cheaper in the US today if there weren't massive government subsidies to corn farmers.

yea in 2nd year health sciences we had to learn what various levels of sodium and potassium in the blood stream do to your heart rythms, lets just say that the results of hyperkalemia (excess potassium) can definitely be described as evil. So I concur with the evil looking scientist guy.
