(04-19) 13:09 PDT DALY CITY -- A 19-year-old gas-station worker in
Daly City was electrocuted as he was changing a fluorescent light, an
autopsy found Monday.

Mustafa Algazawy of San Francisco was changing a 16-foot-long,
120-volt bulb at the 76 gas station on South Mayfair Avenue when he
was electrocuted about 1:20 p.m. Sunday, said San Mateo County Coroner
Robert Foucrault.


Is there really any such thing as a 16 foot bulb?


Some of those attendants at the convenience stores have long arms. Wouldn't
one have to touch both ends at the same time to be electrocuted?

Sorry, someone had to say it.
