I'd suggest reading <http://www.h3rcleanagents.com/support_faq_2.htm>.  Halon 
is described as "remarkably safe for human exposure".  Manufacturing was 
stopped in 1994 due to CFCs, so all halon is recycled.  Seems to me there is a 
disconnect somewhere.  Additionally Halotron is the latest "enviromentally 
safe" non-CFC version.
