Mike, the three sites all agreed that IPA is not carcenogenic.

the second site even listed the reason it is on the list.

quote :

*    This chemical is on the Special Health Hazard Substance List 
      because it is FLAMMABLE. 

end quote.

anything not fully kosher would be why there is no link on the 
internet that links IPA to being a carcinogenic.

In this day of black helocopters and the perception of evil 
government conspiricies, one would expect some sites to at least 
claim there is a connection.

But, if you feel better believing that protection is needed, they you 
are going to be safer than those of us who do not.  Heck, If my 
cigarette were to catch alchol on fire I could be in deep do-do.

Also, if you wear gloves and a mask, you are protected from other 
things that we are not.

Or, better safe than sorry.

Personally I never use aluminum cooking utencils or coffee makers to 
keep the total alumin in my body down.  There is a reason, but I 
forget.
