[www.keralites.net] PERILS WITH YOUR LAPTOP



A couple in Mequon lost their 25-year-old son Arun Gopal in a freak fire accident at home on June 4th. This is exactly what happened.
Arun had graduated with an MBA from the University of Wisconsin - Madison just two weeks earlier and had come home from the campus
for a day.�

He had lunch with his dad at home and decided to go back to clean up his room at the campus. �However,his dad told him to wait
and see his mother before returning to the campus as she was due back from work in a couple of hours. He decided to take a snooze while waiting for his mom while his dad went out.


Neighbors called 911 when they saw black smoke coming out of the house. The 25-year-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 in the bed.

When the lap top is on the bed, the area below it is blocked and the cooling fan does not get air to cool it� and that is what caused the fire. Arun did not even wake up to make any effort to get out of bed as he died of massive carbon monoxide inhalation. The purpose of this "forward" is to make you aware that most of us use our lap top in bed and often go to sleep with it next to us. Please make it a practice not to do that. The risk is very real. Make it a rule not to use the lap top in bed.

So, Please be careful!!!

�Regards.
