I spent a week in a village on the shore of that lake. my housing was 10 yards from the water. It is a beautiful lake, and fortunately the lake did not turn to release fumes while I was the.

Cee, Rwanda. I still think of the genocide of over 200,000 people that happened in1994. Which was far worse than any noxious gas coming from a lake.

how could dangerous gases exist below water? I thought. but the other answers were silly also. after a 50/50 the dangerous gases option was still there, so I selected it. and it was right. then I read the explanation, and it ain't silly after all 😄
