no need to get all alarmist there, joe! co2 is actually being used in studies as a potential treatment for sleep apnea! co2 is virtually harmless ... as anyone knows, a pound of dry ice sublimates into 8.3 cubic feet of co2 ... those boys used no where near one pound of dry ice.

further more ... carbon dioxide pellets when submerged in ethanol-water solution undergo rapid sublimation, releasing gaseous mixture of aerosolized ethanol with the sublimated co2 acting as a submersion medium. Subsequent inhalation results in diffusion across vascular membrane and direct uptake of the ethanol.

oh no .... we better all stop drinking carbonated bevers such as soda and beer ... sparkling wine .... even pop rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was before God started going to counseling and stopped drinking I guess...
