Watch out for running oxygen through your car's air conditioner. Remember that oxygen will make just about anything burn, and will make things that already burn act like gunpowder. If you were to, for example, open an oxygen cylinder in your car to let oxygen run in through the a/c pickup and any kind of spark occurred (which happens all the time in cars) you could be incinerated in the blink of an eye.
While I am playing safety officer, remember that breathing oxygen at 10 liters a minute allows a lot to accumulate on and around you, in your clothing, etc. A small spark from a cigarette, a candle, even the striker on a lighter, or even enough static electricity can send your clothing, bed linens, etc., up in a flash faster than being covered in gasoline. Don't forget this stuff is dangerous!
