How stupid can some people be. Nobody can take a joke these days.

How that a sick joke?

People need to relax. I once saw a man flying on tv. So it must be real. Oh wait, that was superman.

i suspect if most people saw the names of the chemical compounds of everything they eat, drink, and breathe, they'd just go cower in their closets.
i can't feel too sorry for people who are too stupid and / or ignorant to even know what it is they're being panicked over.

It reminds me of that on air hoax my grandpa told me about back in the 40s. I guess they told people that martians were attacking the earth and some people believed it.
One guy even blew his brains out because he didn't want to get eaten by martians.

That would be Orson Well's, War of the Worlds.
Created panic in the streets.

Ah yes,
dihydrogen monoxide.
Think of the panic you could cause if you read the
MSDS for gasoline on the air!

This story just shows you how stupid the people of Fairbanks are:

One year a few people took their children out of class to wait at Fairbanks International Airport after Glenner and then morning show co-host Jerry Evans told listeners the space shuttle was going to make an emergency landing at the airport.
