helium my ass. people use hydrogen to fill balloons. only mushminded 'mericans cant get their heads around the science of using hydrogen to float balloons. its what they use for birthday parties in china and russia. its cheap while helium is expensive. all of this to hide the fact that everything in "space" is hanging from a hydrogen balloon. the hindenburg is used to throw people off that trail. they just cant even consider it. me? i love hydrogen and used to fill balloons with my boys and release them for fun.

its so stupid, you get shock on the faces of people at the gas places if you ask for hydrogen. but if you want acetylene - an extremely dangerous and explosive gas (try filling a garbage bag with that and lighting it off: kabooooooom!!!) - you can have all you want and they dont bat an eye. ive never seen so much dumbf**k piled up in one population anywhere else but america. unreal.
