Taking darks - a cautionary tale

[hughgilhespie]

And while we are on the topic, many (really many) years ago an enterprising cousin of mine, young J,  decided hot water bottles were just so passe, so he decided to warm his bed by putting a light bulb on an extension cable in the bed for an hour or so before bedtime. No one died but the house was badly damaged and young J had to come and live with us for several months while his house had a new roof put on.
