A cautionary note.....
Dennis Fire Department Captain Robert Tucker, who oversees the
[Ma] town's fire inspections... said that when he conducts announced
smoke detector inspections, the failure rate is about 30 percent.
"People just assume they're working," he said.
[as reported Boston Globe, Oct5, 2004]
