What's that smell? Natural gas!

All:

My neighbor is an older adult and needs assistance. There is a decorative gas lamp in her front yard. A long time ago, I smelled gas coming from the lamp. I called Oklahoma Natural Gas, and a representative was sent to fix the problem at the lamp.

Fast forward a few months … I smelled gas again. I called Oklahoma Natural Gas and the representative came and turned the gas line off at the house.

Fast forward again to yesterday. I smelled gas again! I called Oklahoma Natural Gas and alerted the caregivers. The problem was fixed.

You are probably wondering … why does the problem keep happening? I am going to talk to my neighbor's son, get to the bottom of the matter, and develop a permeant solution.

At any rate, the moral of the story is as follows. ALWAYS report a gas leak. Why? Reduce risk of fire and/or explosion.
