Dan,

When I saw that picture my jaw dropped... I worked in an high end cabinet/mill work shop for a couple of years in my early 20s when I was going to school at night. I wore a eye protection, ear plugs, (and ear muffs) along with a high end respirator with fresh cartridges that I changed very often. I was religious about the safety protection as I wanted to preserve my hearing, eyes, and lungs.

Even if you are not standing in front of the sander or sprayer the material is floating around in the air and they are sucking it in. I am really shocked that in 2010 people still are this cavalier about their health.
