Your are correct.

Helium is really interesting.

I used to inject Helium into underground plumbing and a Helium detector to find leaks in the pipes below.

A rouge MRI machine might run things better than the wun, harridan, or burned out socialist.

Helium is inert.

Yes, and a patio deposit could come in handy too.

I got some helium in my mouth once but didn’t talk funny.

Like Slick Willy, I didn’t inhale.

Good grief....you’re hapless and hopeless - and about as observant as Ray Charles in a dark room.

Now go away, troll.

No worries -- helium isn't explosive. You're thinking of hydrogen as in the Hindenberg disaster.

The USA is indirectly responsible for the Hindenberg disaster. During the late 1930s, the USA put an embargo on helium shipments to Germany. That caused Germany to switch to hydrogen gas to keep their airships going. The rest is history.

Dude, you’re wrong. It’s OK though.

We’ve all been wrong before.
