Not all plastic is in fact toxic to burn. Although the standard culprits on burning are cyanide related compounds, carbon monoxide, chlorines etc. Try burning some acrylic plastics for a change(lucite, plexiglas, tm's). Very clean burn, H2O, CO2 and maybe a little CO if you don't fan it enough(like your emmisions are supposed to approach). Chemists please respond with your favoirites or contradictions. I'm interested if I'm wrong. I'd also like to know which eco-fans out there put vacuum cutoff guages that turn off the AC. when the motor becomes less efficient. ANDREW D
