It is not The Word of God, and nor is it misplaced, it is a sound starting
point. But as I said to each his own and shall leave it at that.

Mr Dixon's insistence on the MSDS as the Revealed Word of God is, in
this instance, misplaced.

The MSDS only covers the material when used as intended. The intended
use of polystyrene foam is building insulation. The MSDS is COMPLETELY
SILENT on precautions for hot wiring it, although some common sense
precautions can be inferred.

Given the many sites devoted to hot wiring polystyrene foam, a common
practice in modeling for about 45 YEARS, I think we can rely on the
collective wisdom of the users - just this once.
