Last night Fox news in Boston reported on a fire that was caused by an electrical problem.

It's amazing that the news reports that the fire was caused by electrical while it's still burning and without an investigation.

When in doubt or lack of something to report, blame electrical.
 
Many years ago when I lived in NC, a trailer next to my friends caught fire. After the FD put out the fire, the Fire Investigator ruled it an electrical fire. My friend pointed out too the FI that it couldn't be. Look, see where the electrical meter should be? The POCO pulled the meter for lack of payment.
Official cause: Electrical Fire!

FI must have figured if the electric was turned on, the gas heater wouldn't have been there to get knocked over. Therefore it was caused by the electric in a round about way.

Having lived and worked in many Boston area homes, I can say that I am amazed that more are not burning to the ground right now.

C'mon, Scott, give yourself more credit than that. I'm sure you do good work, I've seen pictures. :D
