As my home heater was blasting the other day, I suddenly had a thought about carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide, a product of incomplete combustion, is a colorless and odorless gas that can be quite dangerous. Wikipedia says that it is the most common type of fatal poisoning in some countries. With detectors abount $25 each, carbon monoxide poisoning is preventable. Although this post would have been more useful at the START of the winter season (closed up homes + natural gas heating can equal trouble), it is never too late to get a monitor for your home. I got mine at Ace Hardware.
Have a good weekend!
