Hopefully some of these flat earthers were CEOs? I mean to say "thoughts and prayers".

But maybe we need a new cutsey saying "at least one CEO amongst them" or something.

I saw that as well. Was there ever an explanation for why they kept the generator inside? I really hope there was a good reason.

People underestimate how quickly Carbon Monoxide can overtake you and how little air there actually is indoors. I was helping someone with their car once time. It was winter and we were starting it to see if something was working. He kept starting it with the garage door closed and seemed annoyed when I would open the door to vent the exhaust. I'd rather be slightly cold than dead. Those people that use keorose or diesel heaters on their garages in the winter just sketches me out. I'm ready to ditch natural gas from my home altogether because I just don't like the idea of it.

I went camping once with my dad and a few of his buddies when it was frigid cold outside. We piled 5 adult bodies into a camper, and they also left a Coleman gas lantern lit inside the camper all night for warmth.

I couldn't sleep for two reasons:

  1. One of my dad's buddies had horrible snoring, and

  2. I could feel myself choking on the stale air. I ventured outside every so often and would hold the camper door open for a few minutes (or until I would get yelled at). I don't remember 100% but I think I had a persistent headache that night.

I'm still convinced we could have all died.

The fact you don't know something doesn't make you stupid, it just means nobody has ever taught you about it.

Carbon monoxide isn't something people can just inherently know.

Fair enough. Human ignorance? I guess what I was getting at is that there isn't ever a "good reason" (which is the term used in the comment i was replying to) to exhaust a generator to any indoor space.
