I was just reading that on average 3,600 people lose their life to fire each year. In 79% of those deaths the home did not have a SMOKE ALARM or it was not working. So if you don't have smoke alarms go out and buy some and if you have them give them a test to make sure they work. You should always have one in each bed room and if you have children its even more important. Smoke alarms do save lives.
