I grew up in the Depression and the Christmas tree lights were the most dangerous thing about Christmas.
Threadbare cords and sputtery lights all over a dry Christmas tree.
July Fourth was even more dangerous.
No one warned anyone about anything and we all survived.
..."and we all Survived!"
If one listens to the "PC-Types," only a lucky few of us lived; a LARGE Number of us Must Have Perished due to defective & dangerous toys. Just check the Obituaries of the time; there MUST HAVE BEEN Thousands of "Victims" of our "unsafe toys!"
