> Today's Message is from Ken Pool. Friends: My brother and his wife
>learned a hard lesson this last week. Their house burned down...nothing
>left but ashes. They have good insurance, so the home will be replaced and
>most of the contents. That is the good news. However, they were sick when
>they found out the cause of the fire. The insurance investigator sifted
>through the ashes for several hours. He had the cause of the fire traced to
>the master bathroom. He asked my sister-in-law what she had plugged in the
>bathroom. She listed the normal things....curling iron, blow dryer. He kept
>saying to her, "No, this would be something that would disintegrate at high
>temperatures." Then, my sister-in-law remembered she had a Glade Plug-in in
>the bathroom. The investigator had one of those "Aha" moments. He said that
>was the cause of the fire. He said he has seen more home fires started with
>the plug-in type room fresheners than anything else. He said the plastic
>they are made from is a THIN plastic. He said in every case there was
>nothing left to prove that it even existed. When the investigator looked in
>the wall plug, the two prongs left from the plug-in were still in there. My
>sister-in-law had one of the plug-ins that had a small night light built in
>it. She said she had noticed that the light would dim....and then finally
>go out. She would walk in a few hours later, and the light would be back on
>again. The investigator said that the unit was getting too hot, and would
>dim and go out rather than just blow the light bulb. Once it cooled down,
>it would come back on. That is a warning sign. The investigator said he
>personally wouldn't have any type of plug-in fragrance device anywhere in
>his house. He has seen too many burned down homes. Thought I would warn you
>all.
