Well, it isn't so much the ecological issues that have me perplexed as

it
is
the rapidly oxidizing noncombustibles. I mean, is this why flammable

and
inflammable mean the same thing?.......hm......no, I don't think

that's
it
either.

Wolfgang
who, confused though he obviously is, will still pass on wearing

pantyhose
to a brush fire.


Somewhat bemused myself. Most plastics will burn alright, with some
unfortunate side effects of course, mainly due to incomplete combustion,

one
most unfortunate and common effect of burning PVC for instance, is the
production of tetrachloro-dibenzo-dioxin, but complete combustion merely
results in the production of water, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen

chloride.
In practice, some incomplete combustion products such as TCDD are

invariably
formed, if at relatively low levels.

None of this prevents plastics from burning though.

I am not entirely sure what is meant here.


Neither is anyone else. What makes it all interesting (and not a little
amusing) though, is that the author of the original statement to the

effect
that people who burn plastics don't know that plastics won't burn

obviously
hasn't got a ****ing clue as to what is meant.

Wolfgang
yeah, it's free, but it's STILL cheap!


Perhaps the only relevant part of the plastic commentary was not stated:
Whether it burns or not, placing it in campfires stinks of the entire
campground.

Takes some folks a while to understand the gravity of the situation....

No worse than the corpses you propose to leave lying about, I'd wager.

The crows would make short work of the corpses.
