I read 'bl00's link before the original article, and my first thought was nanoparticle exposure. Nanoparticle toxicity is proportional to particle surface-area/volume ratio, so if you have some kind of source material that corrodes or oxidizes and produces the wrong geometry of small byproduct particulates, whether immediately or through another process, it's potentially a health hazard. I'm sure Lockheed's internals have already passed word around.
