Good stuff Entonox. Treatment rooms are wel enough ventilated for
it, but cracking the window open a bit would not be a bad idea.
It is compressed gas of course so remember not to let it fall over,
knock off the valve and depart in armour piercing fashion.
Any lurkers wanting the academic bit should review the archives, I
posted a good piece on it a year or two ago, but...
Uses for N2O include thermic lances and heightening orgasm, so when
the blue cylinders wander off the Police are alert to the
possibility of use in a bawdy house or by bank robbers.

Put your thumb on the demand valve diahragm to get it going, and use
a mouthpiece rather than a mask if you can find one.
