N2o Does Not Burn!!!!

ok people need to understand that n20 does not burn AT ALL. some asshole from work argued all day with me about this. and to any of you who mistaking think that... you're wrong. i know most of you realize this, but for those who don't...

FALLACY: N2O is explosive and a fire hazard.
FACT: N2O will not burn, nor is it a fuel. It is merely an oxygen-rich compound that supports the combustion of additional fuel. That's why additional fuel is injected along with the N2O on all N2O systems. It is true that if N2O is added to a combustion process already in progress, the extra oxygen may cause rapid, uncontrolled combustion, thus raising the peak temperatures produced.
