		+	The panel depicting Megan yelling "Hey, stop." and backing away from a wounded Cueball -- that could totally be some peoples response to the depicted situation, if only because it's better to find another person nearby who can treat the patient calmly rather than someone who'll puke, panic or faint at the sight of blood or the wound that it's issuing from. Remember, the cardinal rule of first aid is "avoid becoming a casualty yourself". If you don't think you can provide adequate aid because you are squeamish, there's no shame in simply standing back or assisting as requested.

	The last couple of edits have used "fulgogenic" and "fulminogenic", which I take to mean "creating lightning". I'm not confident that either is a real word, from the on-line searching I've done. While the meaning can be inferred, given enough background knowledge, is there a word with that meaning that's actually used?

		+	[https://youtube.com/@Iampuma] shows that encountering a mountain lion is not always a dangerous situation. That particular mountain lion is unlikely to do anything to people applying any of the solutions. It went to obedience school.

	:I suspect it's going to be a case of reading the manual. Different fire-(smoke-?)alarms having subtly different designs to them. I think one of the ones I last installed had a 'silence' button (separate from the 'test' one), but I've never felt/had the need to 'snooze' it (though I have tested it, even if not as frequently as I should have). Others may not even consider the need (if it goes 'wrong', and it isn't entirely your fault for burning some toast, you'd ideally be ripping it out and replacing it with a non-false-alarm one ASAP) so taking the battery out or disconnecting various key wires might be your default option.
