I need to know fast, how dangerous is ozone
Cause i believe my room is filled with it

[imbaczek]

it's not pretty. this thing is sometimes used instead of chlorine in swimming pools. open your windows and GET YOUR ASS OUT OF THERE.

[Comp1337]

oh shit

Lung damage. Dunno if it's urgent, but you should probably get out of there.

edit: if he makes another reply to this thread, I'm putting in Comp1337 for a Darwin award.

k back
I was all commando stlye sneaking through my room holding my breath
How long do you reckon it'll take to dissipate? cause it's not really drafty

also, my chest kinda hurts a teeny bit :/

edit: should'nt that be if i dont come back

[smoth]

I herd that atmosphere guy has a hole in his layer, he is going to be pissed that you stole a whole room of his ozone!

[Dragon45]

It's not going to kill you in the short term, but it will fuck you up for a day or three. Get out and air the room out. And get some CFCs and UV ray generators in your room, if you can manage it

That'll prolly be your imagination, but it's a good idea to get yourself checked.
Just wanted to know, how did you get that stuff in your room?

[Comp1337]

I built a small jacobs ladder using a dismantled plasma globe, then left it plugged in all day :/ (with closed windows and door)
damn skype and computer outside my room

When i opened the door now, i thought it smelled funny, but what the hell right

After doing some more tinkering i realized what the smell probably is

And here i am

[Hoi]

Well, It's better than the other O-zone I guess

[BrainDamage]

well for once CFC would've been useful :p

ozone is mainly carcinogen (even tho still irritant to lungs in high concentrations), but that's not the only byproduct of plasma running in open air, i'm afraid the "funny smell" was NO2 from oxidization of nitrogen...

i'd definitely go to a doctor since NO2 effects don't show immediately and them can be quite nasty

[Dragon45]

ahhh i forgot about potential NO2 release

good shit!

[manored]

From wikipedia:

"Nitrogen dioxide is toxic by inhalation but the material is so acrid that accidental poisoning is easily avoided. For example, fuming nitric acid is often contaminated with NO2. Symptoms of poisoning (lung edema) tend to appear several hours after one has inhaled a low but potentially fatal dose. Also, low concentrations (4 ppm) will anesthetize the nose, thus creating a potential for overexposure.

Long-term exposure to NO2 at concentrations above 40├óÔé¼ÔÇ£100 ├é┬Ág/m├é┬│ causes adverse health effects[2]."

Yeah, run to the hospital :)

[ralphie]

you're going to die

[Hoi]

I don't think he has lung edema.

Jesus Christ...I won't say anything now besides get to a hospital and get yourself checked out, then make sure your room is well vented.

Ozone and NO2, I mean, you're just dying to get lung cancer...

k after a good nights sleep, im still alive

But iv'e gotten a badass cold

Also, my mom is a doctor, she said it's probably ok. though if i get any symptoms iv'e got to hurry

... I should make a dead man's switch

[Hoi]

If it was that bad you would've prolly swallowed from the lung edema, so I guess it's ok.
