Subway Test involving release of "Harmless Gas" set for Summer in NYC!!

 

VIA:DAILYNEWS:

The NYPD will release harmless gasses into the subway this summer in an extensive test of how the material spreads through the system, officials said Wednesday.
Cops will use the results to strengthen their tactics for responding to hazards ranging from possible chemical spills in the tunnels to potential terrorist attacks, officials said.
The citywide testing, which will be conducted with the help of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, will include the release of the gasses in various subway lines and stations during three non-consecutive days in July, officials said.

This is crazy! Who else feels uncomfortable with trusting government to just spray anything when they feel like it? If I was NYC'ers I would don a Gas Mask, like for real, not play..
