Re: [ST] Steel Brake Lines

Obviously I've never tried sticking a magnet to stainless steel. I 
assumed that all steels would be magnetic. But I'm now deducing that 
what makes stainless steel, "stainless", is the lack of iron, and 
therefore it's not magnetic.

Ok, all you smarty pants, what metals are actually in stainless steel?
