A 53-year old woman returned from visiting a friend to find her first-floor apartment had been set ablaze by a 4" crystal globe she'd purchased a few years back for about $35. According to firefighters, sun glared through the ball, igniting the back of the woman's TV, which in turn ignited her couch. She assessed her damages at around $20k! Even more, she had been forced into temporary accommodations, as her leasing company said repairs would take nearly two months.
We brought you a similar story a little over a year ago.
Moral of both stories: sunlight, refracted through magnifiers, causes fires. And reading The OddBlog could save your shit.
