"Good old days." Yeah. The days of absurdist playstyle created by monster manuals chock full of monsters that had once/day attacks with no other purpose but to instakill your beloved character.
Not to mention the wretched class imbalances. I'm not fond of WoTC, but at least they fathomed that perhaps the mages should actually be able to reach 20th level, and not at that point die to a single flurry of +1 arrows shot by orcs...
As I recall it's actually old news that heating a wide variety of organic substances can damage them and create dangerous compounds. You'll see echoes of this all over the place...warnings about grilling meats, charring food etc. Many of the carcinogens in cigarette smoke are in fact formed by the slow burning process. They should have published first though. Bad call just tossing this to the media.

You see the Baron, three bodyguards, and Goldie.
Goldie's the mage! Kill her!
(different game, same problem...)

Now I finally have a snappy comeback for all the labusers who get in my face and tell me how hard computers are and how much they stink.
But seriously, this somehow reminds me of the old Shadowrun covers....
