Chlorite
The chlorite ion, or chlorine dioxide anion, is ClO2−. A chlorite (compound) is a compound that contains this group, with chlorine in oxidation state +3. Chlorites are also known as salts of chlorous acid.
Compounds
The free acid, chlorous acid HClO2, is the least stable oxoacid of chlorine and has only been observed as an aqueous solution at low concentrations. Since it cannot be concentrated, it is not a commercial product. The alkali metal and alkaline earth metal compounds are all colorless or pale yellow, with sodium chlorite (NaClO2) being the ony commercially important chlorite. Heavy metals chlorites (Ag+, Hg+, Tl+, Pb2+, and also Cu2+ and NH4+) are unstable and decompose explosively with heat or shock.
Sodium chlorite is derived indirectly from sodium chlorate, NaClO3. First, the explosively unstable gas chlorine dioxide, ClO2 is produced by reducing sodium chlorate in a strong acid solution with a suitable reducing agent (for example, sodium chloride, sulfur dioxide, or hydrochloric acid).
Chlorite group
The chlorites are a group of phyllosilicate minerals. Chlorites can be described by the following four endmembers based on their chemistry via substitution of the following four elements in the silicate lattice; Mg, Fe, Ni, and Mn.
In addition, zinc, lithium, and calcium species are known. The great range in composition results in considerable variation in physical, optical, and X-ray properties. Similarly, the range of chemical composition allows chlorite group minerals to exist over a wide range of temperature and pressure conditions. For this reason chlorite minerals are ubiquitous minerals within low and medium temperature metamorphic rocks, some igneous rocks, hydrothermal rocks and deeply buried sediments.
The name chlorite is from the Greek chloros (χλωρός), meaning "green", in reference to its color.
Chlorite structure
The typical general formula is: (Mg,Fe)3(Si,Al)4O10(OH)2·(Mg,Fe)3(OH)6. This formula emphasizes the structure of the group.

Penis Envy
by: KillradioThis is a story called, When is enough, enough?
When that line is drawn in the sand
and your birthright is more than circumstance.
Well, instead of extending that American helping hand,
Sometimes we extend the iron fist, to brothers and sisters caught in the mix.
Check it out.
Let me kill, a little bit more,
Let me have, a little bit more,
Le me steal, a little bit more,
A little bit more, a little bit more.
You got power, need a little bit more,
How bout people, need a little bit more,
Oh, the police, need a little bit more,
Need a little bit more, need a little bit more.
Let me build a bigger bomb for you, let me build a bigger bomb for me.
Lets blow em all away, Third nations got pay.
Let me build a bigger bomb for you, let me build a bigger bomb for me.
Lets blow em all away, I'll blow them all away
When will it be enough?
(x4)
Let me crush, a little bit more
Let me sell, a little bit more,
Let me rape, a little bit more, A little bit more, a little bit more.
You've got children, need a little bit more, Little babies, need a little bit more,
Your inner soul, need a little bit more, Need a little bit more, need a little bit more.
Let me build a bigger bomb for you, let me build a bigger bomb for me.
Lets blow them all away, Third nations got pay.
Let me build a bigger bomb for you, let me build a bigger bomb for me.
Lets throw em all away, I'll throw them all away.
When will it be enough? When will it be enough?
Gotta have everything. Everything.
When will it be enough? (x18)
It's never enough, oh its never, never
Let me kill, a little bit more
Let me steal, a little bit more
Let me rape, a little bit more
