Sorry, Jett, it'd be earlier than that.

<Respected Elder mode>
This was before your time, of course, lass, but in a Respected SR Module
beginning with H there was an air elemental who had to leave a van just
before it became airtight, due to the confinement weakness.

The weakness was described in the original BBB, so I'm pretty sure it would
be in the current BBB. If I don't see it by tomorrow, I'll write it up or
give a page reference.

To answer NightRain, air elementals are disrupted if they are placed in an
airtight container. If they go astral, they are still disrupted unless they
bug out before the container becomes airtight.

And for the munchkin who has everything (don't they all?), I present the Gas
Barrier spell. Drain Target is increased by two over Bullet Barrier. The
barrier represents a normal Barrier spell, with the exception that the
Barrier is airtight. Anyone placed in it will eventually asphyxiate. If cast
on or around an Air Elemental, the Elemental is instantly disrupted.
