I just got around to watching last week's "24" episode on my DVR, and I had an epiphany - combining plot elements from that episode with various SciFi flicks I've watched over the years, I now know how to live through a VX nerve gas deployment on a space station:
Go out where the Nerve gas is, so I can vent the gas to outer space
Make sure to hold my breath, so I won't be affected by the deadly nerve agent
Hold on really tight, so that the explosive decompression doesn't suck me into space
Once all the air is gone, close the hatch to the outside, and get clean air into the area I'm in
Once the air rushes in, take a breath
This is a highly useful set of information to have put together, and next time I'm in space with terrorists who have nerve gas, I'll know what to do.
