    Plastic tongs are good for 'fishing' for small things in hot pickle
    (no heat transfer) and you don't have to worry much about scratching
    your work (nothing like putting a nice scratch on your piece while
    'bringing up the fine silver'). 

    Plastic tongs are probably not too good for grabbing hot metal off
    of soldering bricks - someone could try this as an exercise and
    report back to the group. I look forward to reading the new threads:
    "Safe Disposal of Melted Polycarbonate" and "The Joy of Plastic
    Inlay".
