Flammability of chloroform

Chloroform is hardly flammable at all. According to this Chloroform material safety data sheet, chloroform is a "Slight fire hazard when exposed to high heat; otherwise, practically not flammable." I'm deleting any reference to chloroform being flammable. The reason it was discontinued as an anesthetic was because of its toxicity. Henry A. Padleckas 08:08, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
