off topic but important news

Dear Friends,
For once I am not writing about CAS or poetry - but a matter has come to my attention of the gravest consequences for all of us with children, friends with children, or grand-children. I am a volunteer with Hospice, and my wife is a Hospice nurse. We received an internal professional communication concerning a product called "Dustoff" used as an aerosol to clean computers (activated by R2 - same refrigerant found in your refrigerator). The kids in LA and other major cities ar "Dusting" - inhaling this stuff thinking it is only air, and getting a slight high - this is achieved by the refrigerant blocking the lungs from receiving oxygen, thus depriving the brain of oxygen - only a few seconds is sufficient in many cases to cause death. Several cases already reported.
Sorry to trouble you with this off the topic report, but my concern is just that grave. Tell everyone you know with youngsters - usage is reported as young as 9.
