Used to go into Monsanto Chemical Company to do field service work on some 
of their equipment. We used a pretty strong solvent at that time ( early 
70's) and one time while I was using it one of the chemical engineers came 
by for something and took one whiff of the stuff and just about had a hissy 
fit. He said " that is a clorinated solvent and cap it up and get it out of 
here and NEVER bring it back". He said " that stuff will kill you". I never 
used it again. The company stopped using it the next year. He claimed it 
would cause severe nerve damage.   John
