I am gonna carefully remove mine, fix the chassis (I have three Zeniths portables to take care of), then will reinstall the asbestos sheet. We all grew up with clothing irons using asbestos insulating heater from handle, and all people had to change the heaters every so often.....

People like to scare people. Plus it creates business. Think of it, we replaced incandescent lamps with CFL using mercury vapors, how much more proof does one need.....
