These I would describe as "idiot proof" valves (the idiot I have in mind being Dave Bird) i.e. not even the world's biggest idiot can insert than in the wrong place and cause the 'dime' to tip on its side, or fall forward into the body of the balloon. The correct place for a professional 'dime' gas-filling valve is to pull it DOWN as fall as it will go up to, and tightly pressing against, the rubber neck-ring of the balloon. It saves time to pre-assemble the balloons onto the valves to unstick the coiled ribbon and tie a prepared printed card label on there (like, saying who Xemu is, or where you can buy more balloons), plus a lump of plasticine big enough to 'ballast' the fullest and liftiest balloon you have. If a kid lets go a balloon without meaning to, it drops to the ground on its ballast weight; if he actually WANTS it to fly away, he just takes the plasticine off. More fun can be had especially if you find some sort of small balcony over a pedestrian walkway or precinct --- but NEVER ACROSS VEHICLE TRAFFIC for obvious reasons --- you can chip away plasticine until the balloon is ** just ** ballasted enough to drift ever so slowly down to the ground. Then send it off to drift first with the ribbon coming into reach of first a tall man then a small child then actually dragging on the ground, with the balloon still stood up on sat 4'6'', 5' or 5'6'' off the ground.
