Read in the MAY 97 Circle Track magazine that halon is not really banned,
you just can't make more of it.  It seems that at least one manufacturer of
race car fire systems (check the mag.) is still using halon, but getting it
from recyclers, which is legal.  The article also discusses several bio-safe
alternatives designed for car/engine use.
