I needed a good laugh, thanks.   But I would like more training, regulations and safeguards on compressed nitrogen and other non-flammable gases in locations where a release can produce an oxygen-deficient atmosphere.  There was a death and two hospitalizations from a plain old CO2 cylinder on a SFX smoke machine in a trap room of a theater a few years ago.  People can buy/rent this equipment who haven't the slightest idea of how to use it safely.

Please join with me in writing your Senators and Representatives! A ban is clearly needed on this dangerous explosive, nitrogen!

While they are at it, perhaps they can do something about dihydrogen monoxide, which in its vapor form can cause severe burns! Think of all the children who are potentially exposed to these substances…

Regards, Dan

P.S. I bet that if we approached it right, we could get certain legislators to propose such a ban…
