    I didn’t say they did, just said probably, I’m just a stupid redneck.

    Oh and how do we capture said multi thousand deg helium?

      By cooling down the air that contains it until it’s liquid, then distilling that. Actually a standard process though usually you freeze down natural gas not just random air, it’s quite helium-rich.
