I am moving shortly so I have to contact the appropriate energy agencies in town. Today I called the gas company. The first option on their automated list is "Press one for a gas leak or explosion". This caused me to pause for a moment... just like that. In the event of an explosion would your first instinct be to call the gas company? Would you not call 911? How in the moment do you have to be in order to call the gas company?
I wonder how many calls they get where someone patiently presses the correct buttons in order to report a explosion. What do those messages sound like? Also this was not offered in Spanish it was all in English. Do explosions not happen in Latino households? Do only white people blow themselves up or blow out the pilot lights on the stove? I want to hear several of the messages of people reporting explosions.
"Uh, yeah, so uh, shit went boom. My shed is in pieces on the lawn. Uh, just letting you know. Thanks."
