I just read a story about some wood stain soaked rags that were inside a plastic bag combusting, and starting a fire. As a worry wart, I've always worried about stuff like this. My question to those smarter than me, how does this happen? How do rags in a plastic bag just combust and start a fire? I think I'll start doing what the story says and store them in a metal container instead of tossing them in a plastic trash can, but I feel like something is missing. There must have been a spark or something, heating source nearby, no?
