Oh, gee. Don't get started askign for specifics. Usenet is for wild ass
statements completely lackig in truth.

Since you asked, Myrtle Bingle was using her suicide cord in a power cut in
Arkansas in 1956. She neglected to turn off the mains, and killed David
Petersen, who was working on the line outside her house.

Myrtle was a darky, and she was promptly arrested and tried. Spent the rest
of her life in prison. Died last year.

Remember, now, this is Usenet. You can't believe everything you read.

I've heard that's never actually happened. Can you name one?
