Take a minute and check your carbon monoxide detector.  You may never need it but it sure would be nice to have it work when you do.

Five were found dead Sunday in a recreational vehicle at a Tennessee speedway and a festival organizer said fumes from a generator were to blame.

Three men and two women were found in the RV at the Clarksville Speedway about noon and there was no sign of foul play, Clarksville police spokesman Jim Knoll said.

Bill Langford , head of the charity said "It appears a small storage hatch on the RV did not close properly, allowing fumes from the generator to leak inside the vehicle."

I'll second that! But check your home and your trailers! I work as a dispatcher/system operator for a gas & electric utility.  I've seen a few occasions when people had problems and didn't know it because the battery was dead.  And it's amazing how many times I hear people removed the batteries because they were going off and they didn't like hearing it...  And had a real problem.
