Hi Sir Firefighter,

Just to allay the fears of everyone on Ridecamp who has a "gas" furnace in 
the house or "gas" stove or refrigerator and just rushed to open all their 
windows [bg], could you give us some practical guidelines on the ratio 
between source of CO and the amount of space into which it disperses? 
Like, if you have a 1200 sq ft house, do you need to keep anything open if 
you have a gas stove with 5 pilot lights?  How about a 900 sq ft house?  Etc.

Many thanks!
