Smile.
In the spirit of Now It Can Be Told:
I remember the year when I was a graduate student at Glasgow,
and there was a halloween party in the research student's club.
I 'liberated' a couple of thermoses of liquid nitrogen, to make
fog effects at the bar.
It was quite spectacular, but dry ice would have made better fog probably.
Thinking back on this, had some twit put their hand in it or something
I think the safety officer would have taken a dim view.
