Interesting, since I had two experiences that a dust mask over a wet bandanna would have been handy. Once in a for real dust storm in central Nevada, even though we were in a pickup. The other near Truckie, California near an on going forest fire.MacTx53noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-87248233450576008022012-08-25T13:22:57.570-05:002012-08-25T13:22:57.570-05:00Very resourceful!Very resourceful!ARCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-64537119128024312922012-08-23T11:20:47.068-05:002012-08-23T11:20:47.068-05:00These are also good if you happen to run into some...These are also good if you happen to run into someone thats sick and needs help, as well as for air quality control. <br />Addiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09076269000737371263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-38819169616949362752012-08-22T23:29:24.599-05:002012-08-22T23:29:24.599-05:00I admit that I'd have forgotten about this ent...I admit that I'd have forgotten about this entirely. <br /><br />I'm really appreciating this set of posts.

So maybe wrapping this mask with a bandana (double filtration) might help in that case ?<br /><br />I'm sure a lot of World Trade Center survivors would have appreciated having this mask available to them, a lot of them are now suffering from building material inhalation diseases and other health issues.<br /><br />Thank you Riverwalker - this series is very educational.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
