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:

*You* try again.
As long as everyone is trying so hard, I'll give it a try. ;-)
Where does that say "4000+ residential gas explosions per year",
Pete? Nowhere.
Because that claim is bull****. That document shows 3380 *fires*
2110 gas + 1170 LP = 3280. A very minor nit.
(not explosions) in a *five year* period. Not 4000 explosions. Not
per year.
Actually, that PDF says "estimated annual average" of 3280 in 2003-2007.
True, it's not 4000, and it's not explosions, but is "per year", at least
the way I understand "annual average".
Like I said: you can't something that isn't there.
Are you a personal injury lawyer, by any chance?
