I'm fully behind this and i say that as someone who is a mad himself, (or at least borderline enough to count at times.) Blessed be that my "assistant" is the ship so she can decrease the relative air pressure enough to make me pass out and break me out of that fugue state whenever necessary. Whats worse is that I am a combat hardware mad, things i make tend to make BIG booms and large impressions. Those of you who were there witnessed the result of one of my little projects when i broke ranks and rules to reinforce the Kuntzlers at Jusenkyuo. But then again i'm fairly mild for a mad, and limit myself and what i can do both with the amount of space i don't have to work with and the lack of materials. This sometimes leads to some magnificent MacGyver moments, but we cant have everything can we.

I have to admit yes, i have done this though i did up the oxygen content of the air to ensure he came to no harm. And while i can see the problem with driving mads to the dark side so to speak, the question that sits in front of me waiting to be answered is, do we wait, do nothing, and wring our hands each time something similar happens or do we take measure and try and ensure that this doesn't happen again. Note i do say try, one of the many things we are going to miss is the new Mads, their breakouts are going to catch us by surprise and there really is nothing we can do about it. Those that we do know about however we should do something about, but it should be a measured response. Do i have all the answers, no, but if we all get together and discuss whats on the table as well as other suggestions i think we can hammer out something that will cover 85% of the issues.
