I don't have any really old tools, but do have a couple of 50 year old
electric appliances.Â* Age alone does not make them unsafe, usually
mishandling of cords causing them to fray or crack where it bends. Check
the insulation.

Tell that to the people in California. ;~) Where a water sprinkler now
causes cancer.

Probably does, if you eat it.

Well that explains a lot. I'm getting a kick out of the ump'teenth
proposal foe California to split off from the southern coastal area.

I wonder if that is where most of the earth quakes, fires, and mud
slides happen.
