i am taken aback because i just learned that the chemical factory 2 km downstream from here almost blew up tuesday night and it hasn't been on the news anywhere. apparently we've all been inhaling boriumtrifluoride acid and nobody told us about it.
last time the factory blew up was in 1992 and 3 people died. it was scary. all windows in a 5 km radius were shattered and the river was on fire. |

Well, at least you'll have something else to blame your metastatic cancer on!

well, at least no one took anything personally in this thread and then subsequently hammered it into the ground. we've got that going for us, if nothing else.

^i have no idea what that means but in general i don't like blood in my tea
it's supposed to give respiratory problems or something when in the air because it turns into acid when it comes in contact with water, right??  |

^No blood tea ain't nice
T+ means "very toxic" (like cyankali and such nice things) I've forgotten most of my inorganics, but BF3 is an acid all by itself, it's a gas, but it also can attach itself to the water damp in the air.(*) If you breath it in high enough concentration it leads to chemical burns in the lungs in this way or that. Just checked the toxicologic data according to the security data sheet but it seems not to be carcinogen. If you have no breathing difficulties and/or irritated eyes it should be OK. Acids usually get you once. (*)If this bortrifluoride really reacts with water it gives solid boric acid, not harmful, and hydrogen fluoride (HF), which is very a nasty acid either, it dissolves glass, goes through the skin and can dissolve the bones there, I was scared deadly when we had to work with it (a watery solution of it, that is) in lab!!! HF would be a gas with these temperatures, but it can also dissolves in water. |

oh, not carginogen.. there goes my excuse for metastatic cancer
 actually i did have trouble breathing that night, i used my asthma inhaler 3 times.. i thought it was from the hot weather, pollen allergies, etc.. it still could be, i guess i'll never know. i'm still not dead!  |
