Sorry to gripe here, but the misuse of the word "inflammable" is silly and
can be dangerous.


Because of that, sadly enough, the English language has since defined
flammable and inflammable to mean exactly the same thing - catches

The opposite is now "nonflammable".

Sigh.

The English language has been well and truly flammed.
