An email went around the office the other day telling about a safety device called the Evacu-8.It is a fire-retardant hood and breathing appartus which gives the user an extra 15 minutes of breathing air in case of fire that fills the room with smoke. It's a great idea but I'm not sure how I would go using one. With a lifetime behind me of people saying not to put a plastic bag over your head - here is something which is designed to have you do just that - and secure it tightly with the provided ties. Freakier still would be breathing through your mouth - to take advantage of the charcoal filter in the apparatus. "Don't panic" would be very sound advice in this situation.
The Evacu-8 site also mentions that if you use the device, return it, and provide a testimonial letter - they'll send another free of charge. Can't get a better deal than that.
