Tim there is a lake in the NW part of Cameroon here on Earth. That lake sits on a large concentration of CO2. In the mid 80's, the lake burped and let out a large cloud of CO2. That cloud ended up smothering hundreds of the surrounding residents.

It smothered them. It did not poison them. It was not toxic. Their death wasn't caused by a toxin any more then then someone who drowns is killed by a toxin.


Tim, once again toxic means harmful or poisonous. Its not the same thing to drown in a lake as to be smothered by a gas cloud. One is an accident that could have been avoided and the other is a harmful event in which there could not be any escape or prevention other than not living by the lake.

Now you complain ad infinitum that Scumbria will not concede a point or admit when he is wrong.

I complained once. When did once start to equal "ad infinitum"?


Really? You believe that? Why don't you look over your posts or ask Scumbria.
