Yesterday my company had a fire drill with the local fire department and we train how to get use with the raging fire, so that in case of fire, we dont run away, but managed to control / extinguish it in time before it get worst or spreading everywhere.
This fire drill is very important to my company, because we handle LPG, a very flammable substance, so we must be very spontanious if there are any fire suddenly appear.
Because even the smallest and innocent looking fire can become a very big frightening fire in the end, if nobody react to extinguish it in time.
Now that I think of it, we Otakus who are mostly collectors really in the need to knowing the basic knowlegde of putting out fire.
Because we collect things that really can be burn easily, like plastic model kits, PVC figurine, art books, mangas or comics and many more. Off course for modeler the threat are even more dangerous, because we use many flammable substances in our room, like paint thinner, the paints them self, electronics like airbrush compressors, and other things too.
