Chlorine gas is one thing but you have to mix it with something else to get it to bouyant enough to be dispersable over large areas

Best and worst could go to Fritz Haber. You may not have heard of him unless you're into agriculture, but he is a Prussian Chemist, born in 1868. He worked with Carl Bosch and created the Haber-Bosch process. This process allows you to synthesize ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen. Large amounts of fertilizer can be made from this quickly. He received the Nobel Prize for this in 1918. It is what allows us, even today, to mass grow crops. His work, without hyperbole, feeds billions today.

However, his background in chemistry meant that in 1914, he was asked by his country to contribute to the war effort. After all, that's what one does in war right? He devised heavier-than-air chlorine gas that would go on to be used to kill millions. He resigned from his field in 1939, but the nazis took his research and used it to form Zyklon B - the chemical used in gas chambers on Jews.

He is one of the people whom we ask "does their good outweigh the bad?"

Joker works out he takes on Batman in several instances just because we don't see him at the pile or sling some iron doesn't mean he wasn't! Probably working on his tire flips behind the bank when we get to him in the movie.

So, what service have they been doing for me (genuine)? It has been some time (since now I have a backup of important stuff to not need recovery), but I took a laptop in for cooked hard drive and got a thumb drive back with what looked like they were able to copy everything from the top level folder. Opening the thumb drive brought me to what most people see at the top level - a bunch of folders named My Documents, My Pictures, My Computer, etc Obviously stuff was missing from the crash, but they got a bunch of stuff from a fried laptop.

Idk Best buy and an IT place here offer disk recovery for about $100. Everything they can save from it, copied to a thumb, disk, or external hard drive. I didn't realize this was such a service. If you have them, try a best buy I guess. I've taken laptops and HDDs to the IT place just cuz they're local business but I know I've taken dead desktops to BBuy to get a disk salvaged
