Description

Distribution
gollark: Ominous.
gollark: Yes, CEASE this meme.
gollark: (I was reminded of this because IIRC helium is found as a byproduct when extracting natural gas)
gollark: The US apparently messed up management of its helium reserve somehow, so there's a shortage or something.
gollark: I wonder if there are alternative sources for helium now.
