MIT transite sawing exposure

You've got to remember, back when I was a student I was sawcutting transite on the bandsaw with no mask or anything, because transite is asbestos plate. I've always figured if I ever get asbestosis I can sue MIT. I can't as a faculty member, because I'm an employee, but as a student I wasn't an employee — so there's a deep pocket if I ever get asbestosis. We had asbestos gloves and they were always falling apart, holes in the fingers. You'd go around the foundry for twenty minutes looking for a pair of gloves that didn't have holes in the fingers.
