Carbon Dioxide?

Get real, that is not a drug, and will not intoxicate you.

Did you mean Nitrous Oxide?

The funds raised in these FReepathons go to pay our current quarter expenses. But we're also going to try to replace some of our older servers and failing equipment this year so we're going to add a little extra to our FReepathon goals. John is estimating ten to fifteen thousand to do this and I'd like to get it all in place and working before the election cycle is fully heated up, so we'll try to bring in a little extra now, if we can, and the rest next quarter.

Carbon dioxide inhaled in high concentrations can be an anesthetic. When retained in the body as the result of severe lung disease, it can result in CO2 narcosis, coma, and death.

Carbon dioxide anesthesia was used in obstetrics and other surgery in the fifties, and is now used in pigs prior to slaughter. More humane than electroshock.

General anesthesia by a non-anesthesiologist and without proper monitoring and backup is a risky business, indeed.
