Wow... I know the food is pretty bad at McD's, but I didn't know it was THAT bad.
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

Well a couple of days ago there was a post about wanting more restrooms. I do not know if that would be a good idea. :)

Probably some kind of industrial cleaner, badly used, that created some kind of gas. Phosphene perhaps? --edit-- I am not serious about phosphene, you would be unlikely to produce it with commonly available stuff. Chlorine gas is more likely, and nasty, as witnessed in WW1.
============================== Nothing to say.

I suspect it may have been a clean up person who inadvertently mixed bleach with ammonia (or something related) while cleaning. ---edit---- Probably a good reason for all cleaning supplies to have picture warnings on labels or be written in at least 2nd grade Spanish.

It's a shame though that someone died just because of someone's lack of knowledge or worse, incompetence.

You're probably half right. Fox is reporting[^] a mix of cleaners. Chlorine bleach and ammonia are are the obvious suspects; the toxic products they produce is are chlorine gas, chloramine, and (depending on the ratios of chemicals) hydrazine.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

The easiest test for hydrazine is to light a match.

I was going to suggest releasing a bit of nitrogen tetraoxide instead; but after checking that's used with different[^] hydrazines.[^] :doh:

What did the Germans call it, T-stoff or some such when they used it in the rocket powered Messershmidt?
============================== Nothing to say.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Stoff[^] Looks like C-stoff. T-stoff was the oxidizer.
