Very Important information - Must read & Remember / Practice Always
A couple lost their 25 year old son, Arun Gopal Ratnam, in a fire at home
on June 4th.
The son who had graduated with MBA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison
two weeks earlier had come home for a while. He had lunch with his dad at
home and decided to go back to to clean up his hostel room.His father told
him to wait, to meet his mother, before he went back for a few days. Arun
decided to take a nap while waiting for his mom to come back home from
work.
Some time later their neighbors called 911 when they saw black smoke coming
out of the house.Unfortunately, 25 years old Arun died in the three year
old house. It took several days of investigation to find out the cause of
the fire. It was determined that the fire was caused by the lap top
resting on the bed.
When the lap top was on the bed cooling fan did not get the air to cool the
computer and that is what caused the fire. He did not even wake up to get
out of the bed because he died of breathing in carbon monoxide.
The reason I am writing this to all of you is that I have seen many of us
using our lap top while in bed. Let us all decide and make it a practice
not to do that.
The risk is real. Let us make it a rule not to use the lap top on bed or
put the computer on bed with blankets and pillows around.
Please educate as many people as you can.
