Fluoride used by Nazis to sterilize inmates and make them docile. Fluoride a key dumbing down ingredient of Prozac and Sarin nerve gas -- poisons of choice for tyrant rats.
One such toxic, poisonous 'byproduct' is called sodium Fluoride - which according to the Merck Index is primarily used as rat and cockroach poison and is also the active ingredient in most toothpastes and as an "additive to drinking water"
Independent scientific evidence over the past 50 plus years has shown that sodium fluoride shortens our life span, promotes various cancers and mental disturbances, and most importantly, makes humans stupid, docile, and subservient, all in one neat little package. There is increasing evidence that aluminum in the brain is a causative factor in Alzheimer's Disease
...Alcoa and the entire aluminum industry - with a vast overabundance of the toxic waste - SOMEHOW sold the FDA and our government on the insane (but highly profitable) idea of buying this poison at a 20,000% markup...'goes down the drain' and voila - the chemical industry has not only a free hazardous waste disposal system - but we have also PAID them handsomely in the process!!
This medication may cause staining of the teeth or tongue. The stains can be removed by your dentist....
...OVERDOSE: If overdose is suspected, contact your local poison control center or emergency room immediately.

With a name like that, Holmes, I'd expect better critical thinking and research.
You can't question something's credibility by using wikipedia as a source. That's completely contradictory.
I have offered no opinion in this thread on fluoride. I have offered no opinion in this thread on the credibility of the today tonight programme.

TodayTonight's credibility is suspect.
From Wikipedia:
Criticism Today Tonight is notorious for its sensationalist reporting, and is an example of tabloid television where stories rotate around sensationalised community issues i.e. diet fads, miracle cures, welfare cheats, shonky builders, negligent doctors etc. For this reason the program is constantly under criticism and ridicule, especially by satirical groups such as The Chaser. The show has also been found multiple times to be in breach of The Australian Communications and Media Authority's policies in regards to invasion of privacy and not Presenting factual material accurately.
Too many examples to list: TodayTonight's Criticism - False Reports
Always verify your source.

There is, undoubtedly, a degree of toxicity for fluoride - no one is arguing that.
But pointing to the MSDS for anything other than sodium fluoride (what's actually in the water) is rather pointless.
As stated, there is a safe level of sodium fluoride allowing in drinking water (1.5mg/L).
Also as I posted, this safe level has been scientifically reviewed in a peer-reviewed scientific article: www.nap.edu...
Is relying on sensationalist news outlets for scientific data (MSDS) any better than Wikipedia?

Through one's research of the sources to any given wiki article, one may draw a conclusion about the validity of any article - most are correct, sourced, and valid. That said, certainly there are peoples that manipulate the information for their own gain - this doesn't denigrate the entire site or information within as each article is individually written - all content is user-created - Which means what? *this is a good time to practice some critical thinking* It means that each article should be individually assessed for its accuracy.

Articles in Wikipedia are only credible if the source of the information within the article is credible (as deemed by the researcher). And since all information for EVERY wikipedia has to be sourced, you can verify any claims made within ANY wikipedia article. Then through critical thinking and research, we able to draw a conclusion about the nature of the article and its content.
Sounds like I've said this already, in the same thread even:
