RE: LoL !! Lack of Safety Culture

Same problem with my beryllium tweeters. I couldn't use these if I had children (or cats) in my household, otherwise highly poisonous beryllium dust might get created and inhaled.

But then, I wonder how highly poisonous this stuff is. As a 12 year old radio ham I played with liquid mercury, lead based solder, and even managed to burn my fingers on RF on an antenna coupler (no pain, just the smell of burning flesh). I also managed to touch an active secondary of a neon sign transformer. That was exciting, as I work up across the room with no recollection of what had happened.

I am a firm supporter of the Darwin Awards. :)
