You can make some out of the air, however this is much more expensive that obtaining from natural gas sites. Nitrogen is obviously easily obtainable from the environment. Other than energy lost, there is no harm in releasing either gas into the environment. However, given the rarity of the helium and expense in creating it, most folks would have a re-circulator that captures and reliquifies the gas (for instance like a MRI machine or the LHC); not sure why they seem to have built a chimney with a giant plume of expensive gas shooting out of it (it's not exactly hard to capture)...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[henry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2009 2:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Liquid helium trumps liquid nitrogen at AMD's Phenom II overclocking love-in]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</guid><description><![CDATA[Really?

And it's not really a waste.  They pump it out of the atmosphere and sell it to you.  When it boils off, it returns to the atmosphere so they can pump it out again and resell it.  What a racket!  VERY low material costs on their end--wish I had thought of this money maker.  I don't know if I would attribute the speed increase to the slightly lower temp.  Both are pretty close to absolute zero, if there's such a thing as 'close enough' when you experiment in that region.  The slight gain in less resistance may not account for all of it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rick C.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2009 10:54AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Liquid helium trumps liquid nitrogen at AMD's Phenom II overclocking love-in]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</guid><description><![CDATA[You guys better just stop now.  I mean, think of the resources you had to waste to get the energy to type these needless replies.  First you had to eat something, then you had to breathe - releasing CO2 (gasp!).  Then you had to expend that energy.  I, personally, am disgusted at the gross display of the destruction of our natural resources.  Shame on you.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dolflundgren95]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2009 11:05AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Liquid helium trumps liquid nitrogen at AMD's Phenom II overclocking love-in]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</guid><description><![CDATA["Both are pretty close to absolute zero, if there's such a thing as 'close enough' when you experiment in that region."<br><br>Liquid Nitrogen forms at 77K which isn't 'pretty close to absolute zero'. <br><br>Liquid Helium, however, forms below 5K, which certainly is 'pretty close to absolute zero'!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Monkey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 28th 2009 11:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Liquid helium trumps liquid nitrogen at AMD's Phenom II overclocking love-in]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/28/liquid-helium-trumps-liquid-hydrogen-at-amds-phenom-ii-overcloc/</guid><description><![CDATA[Actually, there's a rather large difference.
