JUST FOR SHARING

Please take note of the below sad tragedy caused by the placement of Laptop
on the bed so please be careful.

You may have heard that a good friend of ours in Mequon lost their 25 year
old son (Arun Gopal Ratnam) in a fire at home June 4th.

This is what happened. He graduated with MBA from University of
Wisconsin-Madison two weeks earlier and came home. Had a lunch with his
dad at home and decided to go back to to clean up his room at school.
Father told him to wait and see his Mother before he goes back for a few
days.

He decided to take a snooze while waiting for his mom to come home from
work. Neighbors called 911 when they saw black smoke coming out of the
house. Their 25 year old son Arun died in the three year old house.

It took several days of investigation to find out the cause of the fire.
Investigations determined that the fire was caused by lap top in the bed.
When the lap top is on the bed cooling fan does not get air to cool the
computer and that is what caused the fire. He did not even wake up to get
out of the bed he died of carbon monoxide.

The reason I am writing this to all of you is that I have seen most of us
using our lap top in bed. Let us all decide and make it a practice not to
do that. Risk is real. Let us make it a rule not to use lap top in bed or
put computer with POWER ON, on bed with blankets and pillows around.
