Does anyone know what the white powder inside a fire safe such as this one is? Didn't find anything searching.
Without researching, I'd guess maybe a Fire Suppressant, such as found in certain types of Fire Extinguisher.
I just googled Fire Suppressant Powder, and came up with this.
Hmmmmm.....Made in Plum Island NY.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plum_Island_(New_York)The Silence of the Lambs (1989) mentions "Plum Island" as a possible relocation site for Hannibal Lecter. He derisively refers to it as "Anthrax Island".
Anthrax is the least of their worries there.
