Thanks for posting this Rex.
I have done lots of misc. metal grinding, with a bag on the grinder to catch
the dust. Never ever did (and should have), think about this problem. Lots
of us have been real lucky, I guess. Went out to the shop to look and sure
enough, there is Al, Fe, Cu and ? dust all mixed up in the bag, just a small
spark needed. I have too little hair left to risk even just a cosmetic
flashing, and it could be a real serious danger to the folks that don't
clean up on a regular basis.
