Trouble is we're going to run out of helium.  I know this because I read it on the internet.  So then we'd all have flat tires and could not go nearly as fast as we do now.  Of course the solution is picking some place we don't like and nuking it.  Repeatedly.  And then some more.  

Multistage thermonuclear detonations (The H Bomb :bananarock: ! ) produce helium.  If you're willing to get close enough to capture the gas we can be riding again!

Helium is wasted on all those birthday balloons & flower shop employees that like that squeaky voice.

I do not like Rosie O'Donnel at all & would suggest her to be detonated upon, but due to UN restrictions am limited on the ability to call for multi or even a single stage H-Bomb detonation on her.  Suspect she contains more helium than most places on Earth, with the exception of a well I have seen near Amarillo, Texas.

Maybe both of us could get close enough & put a bag over her head to capture the gasses that escape? :vrolijk_12:

Trouble is that'd be methane.  And it already comes from (other) cows.

Only in this thread.  Stupid things about nitrogen in tires have wasted many threads.  They all end up like this.  Well maybe not quite like this.  Don't remember anyone advocating nuclear release as a solution in the other threads.

A nuclear bomb utilizing methane would be a great idea.  I give you credit for this, since you are considered a trend setter.  Or trend stander, depending.
