Subject: LAPTOPS....VERY IMPORTANT
Received this email from a friend.
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 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. It was 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 all 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
on bed with blankets and pillows around.
What a way to learn a lesson?
