	Aluminium foil - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Aluminium foil is also widely used for insulation (barrier and reflectivity), heat exchangers (heat conduction) and cable liners (barrier and electrical conductivity).
		In the late 19th century and early 20th century, tin foil was in common use; aluminium foil largely supplanted it, but some people long continued to call aluminium foil by the name of its tin counterpart (perhaps due to its being shorter to say).
		Aluminium foil is also sometimes used in the training of cats; as cats have an inborn dislike of either the texture or noise caused by sheets of aluminium foil, it is possible to prevent cats from jumping on or otherwise damaging furniture by covering its surfaces.

	Reynolds Wrap Foil FAQ - reynoldskitchens.com
		Standard aluminum foil is an excellent for wrapping sandwiches, covering bowls and containers with lost lids, wrapping all sizes of vegetables for the refrigerator, or reheating pizza in oven or toaster oven.
		Heavy duty aluminum foil is better for wrapping meats and poultry for the freezer, lining roasting pans for easy cleanup, lining the inside of a charcoal barbecue grill to keep it clean, tenting roasted turkey to prevent oven spatters and over-browning, and making an oven packet for cooking chicken, fish and vegetables.
		When aluminum and a dissimilar metal are in contact in the presence of moisture, an electrolytic reaction may occur causing a breakdown of the aluminum.

	Tin-foil hat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Hats made from foil are very rarely used, since the injuries they might guard against are highly speculative, and their effectiveness in preventing such harm would be dubious even if the danger were plausible.
		While aluminium foil or tin-foil is traditional, less fragile materials such as 3M Velostat (a kind of metallised plastic) and metal window-screen mesh are now more commonly used.
		A recent, somewhat tongue-in-cheek, study by graduate students at MIT determined that a tin-foil hat either amplified, or attenuated, incoming radiation in the GHz by as much as 20 dB, depending on frequency [1]; the effect was observed to be roughly independent of the relative placement of the wearer and radiation source.

	Aluminum Foil - Glossary from Hormel Foods
		Similarly, aluminum foil works well in some cooking processes but not in all others.
		Aluminum foil typically has a dull and a shiny side, which occurs during the manufacturing of the material.
		That said, since the shiny side of foil will reflect heat better, wrap foods to be stored in refrigerated conditions with the shiny side out so warmer temperatures are reflected away and kept out of the wrapped food.

		Here is the deal: At any given temperature, aluminum holds much less energy than an equivalent mass of pizza (or an equivalent mass of human flesh--and now we are getting to the point).
		When you touch the aluminum foil, your hand and the foil share the thermal energy in the foil.
		However, it is also true that the aluminum foil is much less massive than your hand, and so part of the answer is that there is just not much foil there.

	Baked Potatoes & Aluminum Foil - Baked Potato Recipes
		When aluminum foil is being manufactured, two layers of aluminum go through the rolling process at the same time, face to face.
		The temperatures involved are generally less than 500 degrees F. Metals are efficient conductors of heat, and the foil is in direct contact with the potato, the fact that the potato is wrapped in foil (or not wrapped) is much more important than whether the dull or shiny side faces out.
		A foil wrapped potato reflects some of the radiant heat - so the potato will not be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside.
