I hope they don't waste all that nice Helium on advancing science and human knowledge in general.

It would be a better use to put in party balloons to give children a temporary bit of joy.

Even better if they pass a law that helium can only be put in mylar balloons so that we can test our nation's electrical grid.

It seems a few years ago there were great fears of a shortage.

Sheldon and Leonard are pleased by this news. Now there's no need for them to buy helium on the black market.

So, there won’t be a crisis involving the shortage of helium to fill birthday party balloons?

In 1923, America started constructing the USS Shenandoah, designed by the Bureau of Aeronautics and based on the Zeppelin L 49.

Assembled in Hangar No. 1 and first flown on 4 September 1923 at Lakehurst, New Jersey, it was the first airship to be inflated with the noble gas helium, which was then so scarce that the Shenandoah contained most of the world's supply.

Between the environmentalist whackos, the leftists running the Legislature and our loony left governor,I have little hope the Peoples Republic of Minnesota will ever be exporting helium

Wow, I wouldn’t have thought that Minnesota would have the geology for helium deposits.
