Yes Jim,

It didn't happen to any of our members. But another jackleg
company had a very bad experience. While filling the saw with
a cig, in his mouth. Very bad burns to his body, a very long time
in the hospital. This was 10 years ago, but I'm sure there's
others. Better yet stop smoking! But this is the point with most of my threads,
educate your help to have a choice. Maybe a life or two will be
saved. That's it & that's all.
