While many of those employed in the emergency services can see the
importance of having a fire blanket in the home the same cannot be

either ignore the dangers associated with home fires or they just do

well, I'd wonder. how often does a fire break out that can be handled
by a fire blanket? and why a fire blanket instead of the kitchen
extinguisher? blanket needs a person to be close to the fire to be
effective, an extinguisher does not.

on a side note, everybody (HEY! that means YOU too!) go check your
fire extinguishers, kitchen, car, garage.

(I see *I* need to buy one, my garage doesnt have one)
