Me, I'da left the damn thing right where it was... yuk!
Thats a good point...
I had no idea it was so bad until I opened it up. Had I known, I might have

Other than gloves, mask and open-air venting, what precautions can be taken.
Is it worth trying to rescue, or should I dump it asap. Interested in opinions.
