I remember reading about
how linseed oil will spontaneously combust if on rags thrown in a trash
can.
This will only occur if the rags are wadded up. The oil in the rags
oxidizes, producing heat which can build up and eventually cause a fire.
If you leave a rag open, it cannot happen as normal airflow will prevent
heat buildup.
