There have been a number of fatalities in recent years attributed to DMHO
intoxication. IIRC Andy Warhol was a victim of DMHO intoxication. Inhaling
DMHO has been documented as causing an even greater number of deaths. I can't
even begin to comment on the catastrophic damage to the environment due to
excessive amounts of DMHO.
