How bad is it to microwave styrofoam?

Posted by mike99 on February 19, 2006, at 9:10:33 [reposted on February 27, 2006, at 18:06:52 | original URL]

My roomate microwaves food on styrofoam plates, which makes me cringe.
Is it safe for me to microwave my own food--in microwavable-safe plates/cups, etc. in the same microwave?
