*sigh*

The MSDS says:
Aliphatic Hydrocarbon 45-50%
Petroleum Base Oil <25%
LVP Aliphatic Hydrocarbon 12-18%

Carbon Dioxide 2-3% - which is probably the propellant
Other <10%

Snopes says:
Solvent, naptha petroleum, medium aliphatic >60%

Petroleum Base Oil 15-20%
Corrosion Inhibitor 1-10%
Wetting Agent 1-10%
Fragrance 0-1%
Carbon dioxide 2-3%

Now match the two lists up.
C02 agrees so thats out.
Fragrance and wetting agent are probably contained in "other" so we can kick 
that out.
Petroleum base oil matches so kick that out too.
If you add Aliphatic Hydrocarbon and LVP Aliphatic Hydrocarbon together you 
more or less get Solvent, naptha petroleum, medium aliphatic so we can remove 
those too.

So the only one left is wetting agent which also probably lives in other.

So what exactly are you talking about?

I can agree it is not fish oil.  That is no problem.  I read the MSDS and
it does not agree with what Snopes said.  Simple.  Read it yourself.

I am also the one who posted the link from WD40 saying it is not fish oil
so I am not still arguing that point.
