This kind of story scares the hell out of me. Just a reminder of how important it is "be aware" when running generator.

I wonder what went wrong with the CO detector. Always important to check them and replace batteries...

An awful tragedy and an important reminder to the rest of us to inspect our CO detectors

Moral: If you are going to run your Generator USE A GEN-TURI or equal,, Note that a flexible hose on the ground is **NOT**Equal.

And to the people who challanged me to find links to such a story.. Message 1, this thread.
