Operating temps

[digi]

think of it in terms of both quanity and quality. rather than having lots
of quanity, how about minimize the quanity requirement by boosting its
quality.

by that i mean some supplmental air scrubber, or oxygen injection system,
or something else that'd concentrate what we need, oxygen.

anyone ever given this any thought?
