Texan with a new British accent

A Texan went to the hospital for surgery. She woke up with a startling British accent. - The Washington Post

Think I can have some fun seeing if people will believe I have Foreign Accent Syndrome. :D

I can see it. I huffed Nitrous Oxide in the parking lot of a concert and thought I was Neil Armstrong walking on the moon,,,,,,More then once. :madsmile:

What a waste of perfectly good chemical supercharging, the performance engine grade stuff is $10/lb around here last I checked.

I used to run it on one of my Mustangs, good stuff, variable power based on jetting, expensive though. At the base setting of 75 HP, a typical 10 lb bottle would give about 120 seconds of use, or about 9, 1/4 mile drag passes at the time.
I had worked out an agreement with a race shop to provide it to me at cost which was $6.25/lb, still made for a costly night of racing.

I would have been the guy to know back in the 90's then. I used to deliver 50lb bottles to Dentists and Hospitals. Nobody kept track back then. Matter of fact a few fell off the tailgate and the gas wound up in a few of my buddy's cars racing down 70th st in Southwest Philly. I've been hauling gases ever since.
BTW, it's all the same N2O. The only difference is "medical grade" is tested for purity and certified as such. The going rate today, depending on the customers contract is under $60 bucks for 50lbs.

Well, that and engine grade has an amount of Sulfur Dioxide to keep people from huffing it for fun.

All kind of comments called for her alas all could be viewed as political.
Oh well.

True, My point is Medical, food, racing N2O are all 99% pure. You can use any one of those you can get your hands on in a car.
