alcohol lamp in a glove box?

So, I was thinking the other day. I use an alcohol lamp to flame my needles, scalpels and such. Wouldn't doing this is a glove box defeat the still air principal. A flame creates convection currents with in the box. Your tool is sterile but the air is moving around and any spores with it.
Anyone have any thoughts?

you don't use an Alcohol lamp in a glove box...
unless you want to have a fire!~
just flame your stuff outside the box...
then wipe it down with Alcohol on a cotton ball inside the box.
I hardly ever use a flame...on anything.
