  Any chemists or dental hygenists here? I have a tooth/CO2 question...

  by Kudra in

  .

  could drinking a lot of carbonated water rot your teeth?.

  this question has nothing to do with sugar.. this carbonated water has no sugar but i know that co2 in water is slightly acidic (like rainwater but more so) and that rainwater dissolves limestone caves... so on a much lesser scale could carbonated water do damage to your teeth which are made of calcium...?.

  Although you can't see how much the tires are inflated, I don't think they are flat. That is definetly a plus.

  Speaking of inflated, you can tell that this isn't a huge SUV. The Ford Excursion, was marketed as bigger than a Suburban, but smaller than a Peter-built. It does look like a normal vehicle. Now if I was to advertise, I would have to tell you that I drive a Tahoe. Which is a little smaller than a Suburban, but alot larger than this jeep.

  It could be alot worse guys.

  Dental Hygienist here. I have a list at work, with PH values of various liquids. I will bring it home tomorrow, and try to scan it in.

  Also, I will get a Dentist quote on this.

  I think you're thinking of Witch Hazel Horrible Life.

  Thanks I quit!!! Can't believe I couldn't think of it. My mom used to use Witch Hazel on her face. Every time I saw it, it reminded me of her.

  I liked the ugly witch. Boiling Bugs, I think, in the big cauldron. I can picture her, and used to know her name. Can't think of it right off. Big shoes, wart on her nose and a dress like Carol Burnett wore as a cleaning lady.

  the carol burnett was one of my favorite shows, something you don't see being written like this anymore..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9t8i4fknvo.

  i love tim conway and harvey (r.i.p) korman, tim is always cracking up harvey and often times tim ad-libs outside of the script, sending the entire cast into laughing fits as well as the audience..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qqe_wmagjy.

  My parents would pump my daughter for information on me. If I smoked, or go to church. They would also tell my daughter that what she was being taught in Sunday school at the Methodist Church was wrong, and why. My daughter asked not to go see them again, where she would ever have to spend more than an hour with them. She knew they were weird, at a very young age.

  As a bit of trivia, I live 40 miles away from what I thought was the "World's Largest Peanut". I used to work across the street, and saw this peanut everyday. Kinda comforting, if you know what I mean. Knowing you are in the midst of greatness. As I was looking for a good picture of this marvel of nature, I found out I have been lied to.

  The Governing Body, and now a whole town. WHEN WILL THE LIES STOP!!!?????

  By the way, I like mine covered in chocolate.
