Incidentally, true stainless is infact non magnetic. True stainless has
no iron in it. So if it's got iron in it, it's not much of a stainless
steel.

no iron? it wouldn't be steel if it had no iron in it. it's the addition of
trace elements to iron that makes it stainless.

(Incidentally, many types of stainless *are* magnetic. Given the
popularity of magnets on fridges, you'd think some appliance
manufacturer would jump on that possibility.)
