In game theory, the unscrupulous diner's dilemma (or just diner's dilemma) is an n-player prisoner's dilemma. The situation imagined is that several people go out to eat, and before ordering, they agree to split the cost equally between them. Each diner must now choose whether to order the costly or cheap dish. It is presupposed that the costlier dish is better than the cheaper, but not by enough to warrant paying the difference when eating alone. Each diner reasons that, by ordering the costlier dish, the extra cost to their own bill will be small, and thus the better dinner is worth the money. However, all diners having reasoned thus, they each end up paying for the costlier dish, which by assumption, is worse than had they each ordered the cheaper. (Wikipedia).

Is it safe to breathe a helium party balloon?
Helium is a scarce resource. Some unscrupulous party suppliers are substituting helium gas with lighter than air town gas. The problem is the town gas is both poisonous and flammable so you should think twice before breathing it in to change your voice.
