I must admit I wondered what was so dangerous too! The fire scenario certainly explains a lot, though it makes the statistic a little misleading...John C wrote:I think it is because the plug in ones can start fires easily.

I also comtemplated the potential for electric shocks while plugging it in (it's possible, albeit highly unlikely, and certainly not 1,200-worth...), or perhaps getting an eyeful from the squirty types, if there are plug-in squirties.
I have to agree on the poetic justice front though
