I figure you should remove the asbestos outside when there's a cross wind so you won't breathe any of it in.

Not much different from the reason why I mow the lawn around my old house wearing a dust mask..... (at some point before I bought it the asbestos sheeting was 'removed' during a past renovation).

Default Think of the positive side of asbestos.....

Maybe the little field mice that have chewed up all the wiring insulation and carried away 95% of the asbestos are now coughing their little lungs out inside the some walls of my barn.....

I'd rather try not to breath the 5% the field mice left behind - need all the time I can get to work on restoration projects

And then of course there's the other 95% still hanging around in the Carpet python who lives in your roof that ate all the spotted lung field mice.

The Crocodile hunter could have launched a class action against James Hardie if the Sting Ray hadn't got him.

Default Fibro

Fibro cracks with a bang in a fire. Otherwise we wouldn't have realised the creeper over the fence was alight due to a fault in the pool pump motor. We doused the fence with buckets of water from the pool..
