Subject:Re: CO2 versus Halon: FIRE!!!!!!

Volks,

1)  Halon is toxic to living things! That stuff will
kill you. It removes Oxygen to suppress a fire.

2) Halon discharge is also very harmful to the
environment.  It is one of those products that man
made and it will destroy the ozone layer.

It was designed for use in computer rooms with nasty
electronics.  All the Halon currently in use is being
recycled and you cant even get a refill.

CO2 is a much better choice.
