There was a story about Will Rogers.
He once went to a hotel with new fangled gas lighting. He assumed you just blew out the flame like a candle. He almost died from inhaling gas.
Years later he was in a hotle that had the new fangled electric bulbs. Not wanting to repeat his prior mistake, he put the bulb in the dresser and left it there all night.
