Uplinker: The OED accepts inflammable and flammable as equivalent. Pedant alert: the OED (Oxford English Dictionary) tries to keep English speakers communicating efficiently. The in- prefix of inflammable means supporting. A monolayer of silicone on electrical contacts would only be an insulator for microvolt potential differences.
