Let me use this example; Smoke detectors have been around for many years and it's been confirmed time and time again that they save lives.
They're cheap and most people have them. So let's say that the local fire dept. starts a media campaign for fire safety. They aren't suggesting every home be retro-fitted with sprinklers or fire escapes just advising that people check the batteries in their detectors. So some "individual" decides to go through his house and take the smoke detectors that he already owns down and throw them away. There wasn't anything wrong with them, he just decided that since his father didn't have them 40 years ago, he doesn't need them either. IMO, Kevin's decision was just as stupid.
That isn't likely to ever happen unless the guy is married, because if he is single e will never be able to cook again. Or am I the only one who uses those as cooking timers? :emote20:
