A couple lost their 25 year old son in a fire at home on June 4th. The son who had graduated with MBA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison two weeks earlier had come home for a while. He had lunch with his dad at home and decided to go back to clean up his hostel room. His father told him to wait, to meet his mother, before he went back for a few days.
He decided to take a nap while waiting for his mom to come back home from work. Some time later their neighbors called 911 when they saw black smoke coming out of the house. Unfortunately, the 25 years old 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 laptop resting on the bed. When the laptop was on the bed cooling fan did not get the air to cool the computer and that is what caused the fire. He did not even wake up to get out of the bed because he died of breathing in carbon monoxide.
The reason I am writing this to all of you is that I have seen many of us using the laptop while in bed. Let us all decide and make it a practice not to do that. The risk is real. Let us make it a rule not to use the laptop on bed with blankets and pillows around. Please educate as many people as you can.

TERJEMAHAN : Sepasang suami isteri kehilangan anak mereka yang berusia 25 tahun dalam kebakaran di rumah 4 Jun lalu. Mangsa baru sahaja berkelulusan MBA dari University of Wisconsin-Madison dua minggu sebelum pulang ke rumah untuk sementara waktu.
Beliau telah makan tengah hari bersama bapanya di rumah dan membuat keputusan untuk kembali bagi membersihkan bilik asrama. Ketika itu, bapanya memberitahu beliau tunggu seketika, untuk bertemu dengan ibunya. Beliau memutuskan untuk tidur sebentar sementara menunggu ibunya pulang dari kerja. Beberapa lama kemudian jiran-jiran mereka menghubungi 911 apabila mereka melihat asap hitam keluar dari rumah.
Malangnya, mangsa yang berusia 25 tahun meninggal dunia di rumah yang berusia tiga tahun. Pihak bomba mengambil masa beberapa hari penyiasatan untuk mengetahui punca kebakaran. Dan akhinya, telah dikenalpasti bahawa api itu adalah disebabkan oleh komputer riba yang diletakkan di atas katil. Kipas laptop berkenaan tidak mendapat udara cukup untuk menyejukkan komputer lalu menjadi semakin panas dan terbakar. Mangsa meninggal dunia kerana terhidu karbon monoksida.
Sebab saya menulis surat ini kepada anda semua bahawa saya telah melihat ramai di antara kita menggunakan komputer riba semasa di atas katil. Risiko tersebut adalah benar. Jangan gunakan komputer riba di atas katil yang terdapat juga selimut dan bantal.
