Wonderful.  I don't know how to do that. I also contacted the International Center for Photography to see if they could apply some pressure to get pictures off the site.

It looks like someone got in to the comments part of the article to tell them about the dust explosion hazard.

I captured some of the photos for the training materials on deflagation issues to add to my pictures of the Taiwan Pool Party,  but I don't know how to let these photo people know they are going to seriously injure or kill someone one day.  Hot lights, electrical equipment, even a static discharge would set that puff of cornstarch off like a magician's lycopodium.
 
I keep remembering when a fire extinguisher was accidentally charged with cornstarch baby power instead of talc for a TV shoot and the resulting cloud of starch turned into a fire ball that burned off Burt Reynold's toupee.  And it is just luck that's all that burned.
 
Don't these people read?
