[Fot] brake cleaner and mig/tig welding - safety message

[Richard Good]

This confirms what I finally narrowed down as the cause of nasty fumes when 
welding.  Even just the fumes in the air from using brake cleaner in the 
shop would cause bad smelling fumes when I weld.  The fumes caused shortness 
of breath and a lingering tight feeling in my chest.  Scary stuff.  I just 
got some non-chlorinated brake cleaner that I hope will be OK.
