You have to put together the two halves of the link - it's broken in the story. There's a picture of the melted box there - it's awesome!

Oh great. Now you're gonna have Kirbert smokin his carving stuff.

OK, even I thought that was funny!

It does, of course, suggest the possibility of some tests. Put scrap pieces of several types of material on aluminum foil inside a covered pot, put them in the oven, set it at just about the lowest setting it'll take, and leave them there for a couple of hours. Take them out, see what has happened to each. If the answer is nothing at all, try again at a slightly higher setting. Of course, you're likely to stink up the oven and the house; plan on cleaning the oven after the test.

Perform two more similar tests, one with the scraps sitting in bright sunlight, and one with the scraps in the freezer for a few weeks.
