Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Hey, people, don't use candles to look for air leaks anymore, do they? Progress!
I like to think that people can learn from the past once they know about it. I would hope that the most effective training anyone could have would be a list of disasters and near disasters in the field with short explanations.

"#23 - Here's how Jimmy Smith died because he did this stupid thing. Don't be like Jimmy."

Lots of nuclear accidents have started because of "simple" stupid mistakes. We have been very lucky...

Cheers,
Scott.
New I'd forgive them for the candle
You use whatever tech you have available at the time. It is the removal of fire prevention measures, the near total lack of firefighting infrastructure, and the state of disrepair of whatever did exist, that beggars belief. (And the 90 minutes it took to call the fire deparment + the farce that followed...)
