When a fire breaks out, many people are still unaware that the majority of deaths and injuries happen not from burning but exposure of the victim to smoke. The reason for this is because smoke can travel more rapidly and over greater distances than flames. Moreover, smoke can arise at any temperature and, no matter its temperature can be life-threatening with prolonged exposure to it. <!-- wysiwyg --> http://www.squidoo.com/sealssmoke Sat, 18 Feb 2012 08:59:37 -0600 FeedCreator 1.7.2 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 14:55:42 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/sealssmoke When a fire breaks out, many people are still unaware that the majority of deaths and injuries happen not from burning but exposure of the victim to smoke.
