When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Know exactly what you're on about re leaning over hot stuff, never managed to catch my helmet thankfully!
but why do you think the jacket that i wear out to the garage looks like this?
(it was a xmas prezzie and lasted a couple of months before it got 'worn in' and in the end i convinced her i'd appreciate the
expensive 'modified' wool jacket in the garage during the winter than on the commute to work anyways
ps wool doesn't seem to burn, just melt
pps and the shredded bits are courtesy of holding the workpiece too close with the 'tool' on the angry grinder!

When i used to work as a structural engineer, if you had a mig welder when tacking up, you used to just sling the torch over beams and some times if
you slung it far enough it would wrap round the beam and you would get an inch or two of red hot wire poked into your thigh which hurt for weeks
after, on the bright side at least the wound was completely cortorized

Our foundry suits used to be made of pure wool, It works on the theory that what keeps heat in also keeps it out. I was on an arcair burner for a
couple of years and the suits used to look like lace where the sparks had singed them when they were a couple of weeks old. We also had some
reflective ones but they were abandoned because when they got dirty they absorbed more heat than they reflected.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
