A
couple lost their 25 year old son in a fire at home on June 4th. The
son who had graduated with MBA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison
two weeks earlier had come home for a while. He had lunch with his dad
at home and decided to go back to clean up his hostel room. His father
told him to wait, to meet his mother, before he went back for a few
days. He decided to take a nap while waiting for his mom to come back
home from work. Some time later their neighbors called 911 when they saw
black smoke coming out of the house.
Unfortunately, the 25
years old died in the three year old house. It took several days of
investigation to find out the cause of the fire. It was determined that
the fire was caused by the laptop resting on the bed. When the laptop
was on the bed cooling fan did not get the air to cool the computer and
that is what caused the fire. He did not even wake up to get out of the
bed because he died of breathing in carbon monoxide.
The reason
I am writing this to all of you is that I have seen many of us and also
our brothers& sisters sons&daughters friends&family using
the laptop while in bed. Let us all decide and make it a practice not to
do that. The risk is real. Let us make it a rule not to use the laptop
on bed with blankets and pillows around. Please educate as many people
as you can.
