Doesn't answer the question. The paper bag over the head will increase the
CO2 as a percentage of the mixture and reduce the percentage of O2, rather
than leaving both constant..



The question I thought I was addressing is the safety of room
exhausted heaters. This was to note that we don't just flake out
and die, but tend to get a respiratory alert when the CO2 proportion
gets high. Presumably why the things are allowed under most codes.
