You mean people actually bother to read MSDS sheets? At the company I work at, some any f*ck made a hand drawn copy of an MSDS sheet to tape to a bottle of WINDOW WASHING FLUID (aka Windex) because he's paranoid, when the guys in the back playing with sulfuric acid and such haven't bothered to crack the book open. I always thought MSDS was a sick joke.
But seriously, how many people pay attention to what they're doing? I agree, if a dude is dumb enough to drink battery acid or bathe in methanol (or huff R-12), he gets what is coming to him. The issue I was bringing up is that you don't bring to horse to a poisoned spring for a few laughs (however humorous it may be to watch it twitch).
I try not to be an anal f*ck, but sometimes I think we go a little far in our suggestions to people. Not everyone is as experienced as you are (believe me, I don't consider you a n00b ... anyone who plays with refrigerants like you do better NOT be or you wouldn't be posting still).
