    I remember hearing that dentists are not using it much any more
    because they themselves are suffering damage from exposure, so I
    think that indicates we should discard that approach.

    Are there possible fuel additives that would allow more complete
    combustion, without creating an explosive danger greater that
    already exists with gasoline?  Again, I'm interested in
    nitrates.  We know that high nitrogen fertilizer and deisel fuel
    (a rather sluggish combustive) are used as explosives.   Might
    smaller amounts work?  I'm not a chemist, but I know some of our
    posters have astonishing knowledge of chemistry.  By the way
    Kelvin, I'm sure we'd appreciate you continuing to help us with
    this thread.  At this point, all ideas are good ones until
    examined more closely.  Thanks David L. Huffman
