I don't know what made me think of this OT thing, but ever notice how there's a common theme in movies where they say that talking is wasting oxygen? Metabolic rate determines oxygen consumption, not how quickly air moves into or out of the lungs.

Perhaps I was thinking in terms of the Earth metabolic rate?
