I simply open a DVD that smelt and i am foreboding really below par?

yeah bid the doctor or poison control or something

call the docs
simply imagine how embarrassed you'll feel if you die from sniffing DVDs :P

Well if you're going to die Yahoo Answers is the place to be! It is probably some chemical, highly doubt it is Anthrax... call the poison control number and ask them.. 1-8OO-222-1222
