as a laundry and personal-care products additive and as flame retardant 
for fabrics (and for getting dumped out of airplanes)...(oh, wait, I may 
have answered my own question....does it affect the heat of the items in 
some way?)
--maire, itching at the thought of all that borax (I'm really allergic 
to it from years of over-exposure at a job)
