schillin@spock.usc.edu (John Schilling) writes: So if you ever get
kidnapped by aliens, ask for oxygen at 5 psi, flavored with 0.05 psi of
water vapor and 0.005 psi of carbon dioxide, and diluted to match local
pressures with any convenient inert gas. Try to avoid Xenon (anaesthetic
properties), Radon (radioactive), or Helium (you'll sound like Donald
Duck). Nitrogen or Argon are both fine, as are Neon and Krypton. Maybe ask
for 5 psi of Krypton; it's rare, and if they think it essential for humans
we might look a lot less economical as slaves :-) Back
