Hey Ron, that's why some folks used to wear what were (and still are) called
"engineers neckties." You know, those silly ties whose cravat clipped onto
the collar. If the tie got caught in machinery, it would simply pop off the
ol' neck! I wonder if they're still made?

I had a friend once who was cleaning up a rusted old mounting bracket to
repaint on a wire wheel bench grinder.
He loved his car so much that he just couldn't wait to change clothes
after getting home and would rush right out to the
ye ole Healey shop. Needless to say his necktie was his his undoing.
Memorial announcement to follow.
Ya, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
