There was a big Consumer Report thing on the news (ABC World News Tonight)
about 2 years ago about flameproof jammies for kids...and they showed what
happens if you use fabric softener on them.  The fabric softener made them
pretty darned flammable, (especially the liquid softeners).  So in answer =

everything!  *grin*
