Have you looked at the actual stats? I believe NFPA has some
good ones showing 4,000+ residential gas explosions per
year.


I'd sure like to see a URL. I did a search, including NFPA
web site, and can't find that stat.


You can't find something that isn't there....


Try again:

http://www.nfpa.org/~/media/files/re...heets/gasfacts
heet.pdf

*You* try again.

Where does that say "4000+ residential gas explosions per year",
Pete? Nowhere.

Because that claim is bull****. That document shows 3380 *fires*
(not explosions) in a *five year* period. Not 4000 explosions. Not
per year.

Like I said: you can't something that isn't there.

Are you a personal injury lawyer, by any chance?
