Fluoride rinse induces "remineralization" I've personally seen it. If you have a soft spot in a tooth, using fluoride rinse twice a day will help harden it back up (remineralize it) with a few days.

It's a very powerful product.

Constant effort is made to raise the use of dental floss in UK:

Yeah, about that "perfectly safe" mercury amalgam ... check out what Colgate has to say: http://www.colgate.com/app/Colgate/US/OC/Information/OralHealthBasics/CheckupsDentProc/Fillings/DentalAmalgamAHealthRisk.cvsp#part8

Mercury, like nuclear radiation, is safe under certain conditions where those conditions include low-dose exposure and only small numbers of exposure to those low doses. Some people have argued that the rapid-fire barrage of low-dose exposure to mercury that accompanied the vaccination protocol (i.e. not single vaccinations) is what can lead to temporary toxic levels of mercury in the bloodstream. While likely to be rare, there's no reason it should be impossible.

Similarly, there's something stent implant patients injected with to help the surgeon see what he's working on that is "perfectly safe" except that if surgeon can't finish everything while the dose they give you before the surgery is still active then they have to schedule a second surgery a day or so later because giving you a second dose that soon would be cause harmful toxicity within your kidneys.

Or to put it in fark/slashdot terms: one beer is perfectly safe ... 42 "one beer"s are also perfectly safe ... but 42 "one beers" within a single hour will kill you.

Of course, Ajax is what you put onto the sponge ...

Oops, too late...

This is such utter tosh. My mother was using Ajax in the 1970's and I suspect it had been invented a long time before that. http://www.colgate.com/app/Colgate/US/HC/Products/ HouseholdCleaners/Ajax.cvsp

Boy! Yeah. Even though it's harmful as it says here, I don't get why people keep using this Ajax thing!


Slashdot, now with bleach!

25,000 bottles of Ajax on the wall.

Sorry Ajax is a registered trademark of Colgate. http://www.colgate.com/app/Colgate/US/HC/Products/ HouseholdCleaners/Ajax.cvsp

"GNU/AJAX"? :P

Now, if only we could get somebody to trademark the term "AJAX".

I think these guys do. They don't seem to be too interested in fighting for it though.

If not, you need to clean it up!
Code cleanliness is next to Dev godliness.

What is Ajax? Free Karma to the best answer.

William Colgate started a candle and soap making company in New York City in 1806. By 1906, the company was making over 3,000 different soaps, perfumes and other products. For example, Colgate Dental Cream was introduced in 1877. In 1864, Caleb Johnson founded a soap company called B.J. Johnson Soap Co., in Milwaukee. In 1898, this company introduced a soap made of palm and olive oils, called Palmolive. It was so successful that that the B.J. Johnson Soap Co. changed their name to Palmolive in 1917. Another soap making company called the Peet Brothers Co. of Kansas City started in 1872. In 1927, Palmolive merged with them to became Palmolive Peet. In 1928, Palmolive Peet merged with Colgate to form Colgate-Palmolive-Peet. In 1953, the name was shortened to just Colgate-Palmolive. Ajax cleanser was one of their first major brand names introduced in the early 1940s.

I think they used Ajax and scrubbed it clean.

But really, the greatest source of household dirt, smut, filth, and sewage is, yes, the INTERNET. Therefore, coming RSN (like most apps are):

Ajax Web Development! We keep the internet clean!

Obligatory link. And lets not forget monkeyboy. That guy should be doing commercials for Mennen. I recommend "Cyclone"

Ahhh, another company damaged by Ellen Hancock.

• IBM's PRGS ("Programming Systems") Laboratories, of which she was the overall manager
  
• Apple Computer Corp, as the right-hand of Gil Amelio
  
• Exodus Communications, where she was CEO
  
• Global Crossing, the poor sots that ended up with 108 million worthless shares of Exodus
  

• Cable and Wireless, another batch of poor sots that bought parts of Exodus
  

So, what other companies and organizations are on the watch-list?

• Aetna
  
• Colgate-Palmolive
  
• Marist College
  
• Santa Clara University
  

Disclaimer: Well, duh ... of course I am a disgruntled ex-employee of Ms. Hancock back when she was a IBMer. I just did not realize how bad she really was ... even if none of this was her fault, she has still been at the epicenter of many closed office buildings over the years.
