* fluorine - 1813, non-metallic element, coined by Eng. chemist Sir Humphry Davy (1778-1829) from fluorspar ("calcium fluoride," modern fluorite), the name of the mineral where it was first found, from L. fluor, originally meaning "a flowing, flow" (see fluent). The mineral name was given by Georg Agricola in 1546, translating Ger. name flusse, so called because it melts easily.
* fluoride isnt Flourine its: 1826, "binary compound of fluorine with another element," from the same source as fluorine (q.v.). Fluoridation, in reference to adding traces of fluorine to drinking water as a public health policy, dates from 1949.
* "Thanks" to IG Farben your local water company is providing water that's mmm good.
* "Fluoridation, the process whereby millions of people are 'medicated' whether they like it or not, has an interesting history. The main part of the story begins where the second world war ends. Straight after the cessation of hostilities the US government sent, along with an entourage, the biochemist Charles E Perkins, to take over the giant IG Farben works in Germany. This was a chemical conglomerate without which Hitler would not have been able to wage war.
I G Farben had links with the American aluminium producers, Alcoa, which were maintained even during the war. Both concerns produced prodigious amounts of fluoride as a waste product. A story sneered at by scientists on both sides of the fluoridation debate but nevertheless refuses to die, has it that during the war, a scheme was initiated by German scientists and later adopted by the German General Staff to add sodium fluoride to the drinking water in occupied countries.
It had allegedly been discovered by German scientists that repeated doses of this chemical slightly damaged the hippocampus, an area of the human brain. It appeared that people so affected displayed less aggression and independence of action, leading to a docile, easily controllable population. If this were true, Charles Perkins would no doubt have learnt of this scheme. This episode is described by Dr Hans Moolenburgh in his book Fluoride: The Freedom Flight. (1)" [

* Got flourine?
* "So, what happens when you add F to municipal water?
It turns out that there are vast ramifications from adding F, and va$t rea$on$ for doing it.
In essence, the fertilizer, aluminum and steel industries produce, in the process, massive quantities of fluoride that used to be industrial waste. To save large amounts of money, they came up with the idea of dumping this industrial waste into drinking water. Now, instead of having to pay to have the fluoride waste hauled away,
they are paid to poison us. " [

* "Even bathing or showering in fluoridated water will cause you to absorb an unhealthy amount of it through your skin." [Ibid]
* Flourine may reduce the availability of trace minerals in your body and therefore lead to fatigue, acclerated aging and illness. [Sulfates are said to do the opposite!]
* Flourine in animals might reduce the nutritional affects in meat products.
* Colloidal minerals and methyl sulfates
* Tests apparently have shown that AIDS patients are deficient in key amino acids that Flouride may rob the body of the raw materials for [cystine, cystene, gluthione] sulfur based compounds help build!
