    Ouch! I hate those. It's like having acid poured down your nostrils (not that I've ever tried that, but I've got a pretty good imagination).

      This could have a great impact on the course of history. The problems I see are that any U.S. politician who suggests spending the money needed to put refineries out there would be destroyed by his opponents' ridicule. Any multinational CEO who suggested it would be fired by his board of bankers and accountants. Meanwhile China and Russia and possibly Japan will be spending the money in a new space race. Simultaneously France and India will be leading the fight in the U.N. to declare all resources in the solar system to be the 'property of all mankind,' conveniently under the care of the folks who gave us the oil-for-food scandals.

        Nah, it's CO2 coming up your nostrils, condensing into carbonic(?) acid. I should've excluded organic acids! ;)

          I doubt very much CO2 condenses at typical, Earthly nasal temperatures, but I do believe the solution of CO2 in the water part of the liquid already contains carbonic acid.

                      Yeah, and Iran will put nukes "plants" there - honest they're for power - and say "Come and git it - we dare you."
