I seem to remember a post today (Sunday 3-8) about "Chem Trails", you know, those long thin cloud-like trails across the skies caused by high flying aircraft. However when I went back to re-read it I couldn't find the post.

Can anyone direct me to it???

50 years ago I started calling water DiHydrogen Oxide as a teenager.
Adding "Mono" is perhaps redundant as "Oxide" by definition identifies the compound as having at least one oxygen atom. Perhaps "mono" clarifies a single oxygen atom, regardless both are correct.

Interesting, I never knew that.
I call it DiHydrogen Monoxide because Carbon Dioxide is two oxygen molecules (CO2) and carbon monoxide is one (CO).
