I did not know about the co2, it makes perfect sense though. I am glad you said something. I will keep it in a styrofoam chest, like I have seen others do.
side note/story (I use to work for the millwright union):
A while back they talked about changing the gas chamber from cyanide to co2 as a more humane gas.
It was discovered how well it works to kill someone on a job site. The job site would fill large machinery / crank cases with co2, (I believe to prevent rust during construction), over night and on weekends. There was a worker who did not ventilate the case before crawling inside. That worker fell over/colapsed, and two other workers who seen this happen went to give aid. They both almost made it to the unconsious worker before they fell over. The others then decided to isolate and deny entry until they discovered what was going. Come to find out the co2 was the cause. It is in our enviroment everyday, so you do not notice anything different until you go unconsious and suffocate in your sleep, very quickly.
Thanks for the warning geof.  |
