EU consumer chief wants “fire-safe” cigarettes
By Darren Ennis Thu Jul 5, 3:04 PM ET

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union’s consumer chief aims to prevent thousands of fire-related deaths and injuries each year by making all cigarettes sold in EU countries self-extinguishing, European Commission officials said.
and thought what other products should they have?

Pretty much anything in "Spencer's Gifts" store can be fit into this catagory. 

I do love the USB toothbrush.  I have seen alot of wierd USB stuff, but that's probably the most rediculous so far.

How is that not a good idea?

Do you know how many people die every year from fires started by cigarettes?

I think he meant the science behind it.  When you light and BURN a cigarette.  I guess you could have maybe a metal outer cigarette case of the cigarette or something, but I highly doubt you can have a REAL cigarette that is fire proof.  That's like trying to design a bathtub that doesn't get you wet....

It doesn't say 'fire-proof' it says 'fire-safe'. And it's very easy to make one of those. It's all to do with the paper - it's chemically treated to stop it from going out. You don't get the same problem with roll-ups - they just go out.

They have the Firesafe ciggarettes in New York, there the only kind sold. And they suck. They go out when you dont want them to, and when you forget about it in the ashtray it burns all up... waste of time and money. But all those fires related to ciggarettes need to be stopped... Please, there are so many better things to cure in life..

Of course, it might have a rechargable battery. Sunlight hits the panels, panels transfer energy to battery.
