Remember the cult in Japan that tried this?
They were spraying the stuff from rooftops, and the cops came and asked them to stop because people complained about the smell.
Then they drove through town with spray equipment, and made some pets sick..
Finally, in a last ditch effort to actually kill someone, they switched to chemicals and let them off in a subway. That's what it took.
Indeed, these things are much more frightening on paper than they are in real life.

The theoretical lethality of a weapons system is equal to X times Lo, where Lo is the real-world lethality and X is a variable that represents "ideal conditions" that never exist in reality, PR hype on the part of the manufacturer, FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) raised by the Usual Suspects in the mass media, and the gullibility of the general public.
