   You should.  It's short and free.  And not so many folk realize that   
   those warnings are not just safety nuts nattering.

   I used that tech in an NMR machine while a chemist. The magnetic field was   
   of similar strength, 1.4 Teslas, and would bend the blade of a knife held   
   near it.   
      
   NMR is Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, a name that had to be changed for medical   
   use to avoid frightening patients.   
      
   Someone else forgot to remove his wristwatch when changing samples and   
   magnetized it. He took it to a jeweler to be demagnetized, which normally   
   makes the watch vibrate a little at first. In this case it flew off the   
   machine and landed on the floor, breaking its crystal.
