More Gas

Sneezing gas may or may not exist. If it does, it would explain my sudden, violent sneezing attacks.

The most recent addition to the gas family (tap) is what I call, 'heavy gas.' This gas manifests as a feeling the air has suddenly become thicker, heavier. It is a feeling of being slightly smothered. I suppose it acts on the smaller passages, constricting them. This effect is felt immediately and does not persist after the gas has been dispersed. It is the least irritating of the gases, mucus membranewise (a dash of right lung gas here (thump)). Heavy gas is available in large quantities and can be administered over long periods of time. It doesn't seem to be too 'portable,' and probably comes in large containers. (Nor is throat gas very 'portable.') Heavy gas was introduced after the ventilation system was installed.
