obsoletize

To make obsolete.

To obsoletize poisoning non-smokers, Charles Knows invented a Safe Smoking Lounges (SSLs) and got permission to erect it on Coney Island Beach to see how many smokers used it voluntarily. SSL's have a solar-powered ceiling fan which blows cigarette smoke up a chimney to the atmosphere to prevent the cigarette smoke from injuring non-smokers.
