OT but ..

  In 1986 during a software contract, one of the staff
kind of staggered back to his seat saying that he
felt weak and sick.
  I told him that he was suffering from mild cyanide
poisoning.
  "You're joking?" he said looking at me.
 I reassured him that it was not an accumulative
poisoning and since he had survived, there was
no danger then nor in the future.
  He had been smoking a cigarette in the ammonia
fumes of the large blueprint copiers of those days.
 He vowed that he would never smoke there again.
  'O' level chemistry.
