I don't think you get 'vaporized Aluminum' in air.  You get
Aluminum oxide (burnt Al), which is saphire - pretty inert
stuff.  I think the Alzheimers/Al link has been discounted,
although perhaps that's a xyz conspiracy due to the extremely
widespread use of Al in US society.  IIRC the original evidence
was base on some Al found in diseased cells; there was never any
particular sign how it got there...
