heh, you have any idea how much money it would cost to ship in and then pump oxygen into an area as large as a casino?

Do you have any idea how much it would cost to keep millions of lights flashing inside a room 24 hours a day and billions outside for 16 hours a day, and pay every floorperson and security guard and cleaning staff and supply beverages at no charge?

I was watching that "Extraterrestrial" special on the National Geographic Channel a couple of months ago. Apparently, once an atmosphere reaches about 30% oxygen, the chance of a fire spreading and the speed at which it spreads goes way up. So, the air in a casino couldn't possibly be 100% oxygen.

Wouldnt pumping anything into the air be illegal?

You're correct. Oxygen for human consumption actually is tightly regulated for medical purposes only. The casino would be in for one hell of a lawsuit and penalties if they got caught.

Hey, I didn't know that. It's true...we really do learn something knew every day.
