    How so? It's been 8 years since my last chem class so I wouldn't be surprised if I got the terms mixed up.

    If they are feeling a difference in the ride, its due to the placebo affect. 35 psi of "air" is the same as 35 psi of anything else. And you cant tell me there is one human on this rock that can tell the difference in "softness" from one molecule to another....

    Also known as Noble Gases and If you look at the standard periodic table they are in the last column on the right hand side. I am sure most of the welder here know Argon is used in arc welding or certain metals and alloys.

    God I m a Dork, but I drive a tacoma so that should count for something.

    In 'Mars Attacks' the Martians had to wear helmets to breathe nitrogen. 78% wasn't rich enough?

    If our air is only 21% oxygen, then why don't we need helmets to breathe oxygen here?

    Did the movie writers goof up? Mars' atmosphere is 95% Carbon Dioxide and only 2.7% Nitrogen!

    Has 'Mars Attacks' been misleading us on the truth???

    Well...I feel like I'm smarter now. Not 100% though, more like "78%". This is the only thread I have read on here that made me...for a split second...think I was in science class. :goingcrazy:
