It seems that somewhere along the way, I've heard people say that eating food cooked in aluminum pots can cause Alzheimers or something like that. I have no verifiable proof nor do I remember where I heard this.. But the question I would like to pose to the board is this:
Of you guys (and Gals) that work with aluminum, do you find that after a long day or two of grinding, sanding,polishing and/or handling the stuff that you become a little cranky, easily angered or bad tempered? thinks for a second abou this because if this is the case, it is very subtle. Every person Ive ever talked to that works with AL seems to be a little grouchy.
I must say that at times I do find this to be factual in my own personal experiences especially when im grinding. the dust floats in the air and I can see it sparkle in the sunlight. This is about the time I remember to put on the mask...
I had mentioned somewhere else that of all the elements in the periodic table, Aluminum will form the smallest of free floating particles. They exist in the micron size. I can just see this stuff getting into our lungs and then our bloodstream.
But anyway, how do you feel after a day or a few days of working with the stuff?
