ASBESTOS, "MIssINc LINK"

Asbestos is called the miss ing link" by the men who mine it, because it is between a rock and plant. According to the National Geographic Society, it is a physical paradox even though it cannot bridge the entire gap separating the boulder from the sapling.
 Asbestos can be woven like cotton and wool. In the natural state it looks like spun glass in bundles and it is as smooth as silk to the touch. It finds it's way into many important places. At present it is used as roofing, for theatre curtains, clothing and paper. It impris- ons live steam to hard labor, prevents many auto crashes daily and often hides itself in the rustic of silk skirt.
 Asbestos has been known for ages. The ancients spun the fibers and wove them into cloth. Charlemagne. it is relat- ed, had an asbestos table cloth the chief advantage of which was the ease and simplicity of
