Hi everyone,
This Oreck story is about 11 hours old per Alta Vista's news page but I though I'd pass it on. Link is below.

Also, here is another link to a news item regarding a rather peculiar occurence that may be something to think about regarding vacuum cleaner safety issues. A vacuum's bag caught fire while left and turned off overnight after cleaning up polyurethane residue on a newly sanded floor. Has anyone heard of spontaneous combution occuring in a vacuum bag before? The story seems to infer that the fire was due to some sort of chemical reaction.
