Super Cold Spray - for wart removal?

Nitrogen would work just as well and is cheaper.

CO2's even cheaper. With a dry ice, a plastic bag, and a coat-hanger
you can ... um ... party, kill yourself, *and* freeze your warts off
too.

But CO2 makes you feel stifled, like holding your breath. Inert gasses
produce no sensation but unconsciousness. Why not compromise on
nitrous oxide and go out on a high?

And it's available for just a couple of dollars at your local
supermarket!

Why must you find such expensive solutions to simple engineering
problems? The bag by itself will do the trick.

Then you'd have a build-up of CO2, which triggers the "I'm suffocating"
reflex, which would be exceedingly horrific. The argon lets the CO2
purge out of your system - the breating reflex is triggered by CO2 in
the blood - and you just lose consciousness from oxygen deprivation.

At least, in theory. ;-)

Cheers!

Years ago I set my dead car battery to charge in a small windowless
room. The next morning I walked into the room and all of a sudden felt
"funny"-- It was very easy to breathe, but all that inhaling wasnt
doing me any good. A little light went off in my head! The room's now
full of Hydrogen! I got out of there in a hurry and propped open the
door as I left. That was a close one! Don't do this at home.

To the contrary ... the reason people tie (and are found dead with)
bags on their heads is to get that enormously amplified climax that
comes from simultaneously reaching the brink of asphyxia.

Of course sensible people simply hold or reduce their breathing, or
partially reach that state naturally by simply being out of breath from
exertion, avoiding tedious funeral arrangements.

But you're only alive for 1e-9, or less, of the untimate age of this
universe, so why not play it for whatever the brief trip is worth?

Yes to maximizing the ride, but I'm not sure whether you mean "You
might as well die and have a blast doing it," or "Life's short, why cut
it shorter?"

Personally, I'm keeping my options open by living to live long, and
(p)reserving the option to quit when the fun's gone.

The choice here however, is unnecessary -- maybe my PG-rated
description above wasn't explicit enough to explain that the thrill is
available without the foolish danger.

Cheers,

I like women doctors. I had a cyst on the back of my head that had
gone big-time infected.

Our family doctor was afraid to touch it.

Went to a dermatologist last Wednesday.

She took one look and told the nurse assisting her to put on her
goggles.

Then she whipped out a scalpel and ZIP... blood and yellow gunk
everywhere ;-)

Then a bunch of painful squeezing and scraping... no anesthesia :-(

But it's fixed.

Of course I'm on Augmentin for 2 weeks.

It runs fine on Firefox. Sorry, I can't be any more specific. The site
harmless if you don't go for "Free stuff"

I'm using Firefox. I'm not much into graphics, particularly given the
present problems. Guess I'll pass.
