It has the same effect as " in van gassing " on the motorhome forums

????
Is this a reference to flatulence? Or head-in-oven suicide? Or what?

LOL.....no its a reference to people thinking they have been gassed by burglars whilst sleeping in their vans.
When medical opinion is that its not possible for various reasons.....but it certainly gets people going on the forums.....with extremely strong opposing points of view.....my opinion is its an urban legend.....

No.......very rarely and it doesnt happen at all in my, and the majority of m/homers, opinions.......
I think it is usually people have fallen into a deeper sleep than they imagine....due to tiredness after a long drive or too much alcohol or whatever, and when they wake up robbed its easier and a more exciting story to say they've been gassed

And the stories are all usually along the lines of.....my friend/ neighbour/etc knows "someone" who was
gassed.......

Now I like those 'safe-turn' wrist indicators Steve.......seem like a very good simple idea as you can use them without gloves...
