Thats what you call going down in flames isnt it Steve? It certainly burns
with a vengeance. Friend of mine was demonstrating some magnesium welding
rod to a couple of friends just the other day when one of them asked about
this whereupon he tried to show them how well it burns by applying a match
to the rod. I commented he would probably burn his fingers whereupon he
switched to the gas torch and in about 7 or 8 seconds it burst into flame
spattering all over the floor. I believe today its always mixed with
aluminium or has aluminium impurities for a startoff.
