  Nonetheless it is a very good idea to keep ammunition out of
electrical and thermal conditions which might set it off.  Even
considerably less force than a normal gunshot can damage an eye or
cause other injury.  John DeArmond told me that my original posting
could be taken as overly downplaying a real danger, and upon
re-reading it I think he's right.  Be careful, and don't take chances.
