OFF: N2O

[DAMON CAPEHART]

OK then... I did a kwik search and found the following:

----------
Of course, if you've ever had a cavity filled, you probably
know nitrous oxide by one of its more benign
nicknames--laughing gas. However, the effects of nitrous oxide
can be severe, as well as deadly. Inhaling nitrous oxide can
lead to a loss of motor control, nausea and headaches, as well
as slurred speech and unconsciousness. Chronic abuse can cause
vitamin B12 deficiency, which in turn can result in anemia and
nerve degeneration. And it can also cause death by asphyxiation
when inhaled through a face mask or bag, since it starves the
body of oxygen, resulting in Sudden Sniffing Death.
