No BBQ's in Apartments

[LashStoat]

Dear All,

The California Fire Dept. wishes to advise that all BBQs and fireplaces must comply with the recently published building code. Due to loopholes in the previous regulations, approved "Flame Containers" will be described by the brick count.

As an indication, the brick count for a BBQ/Fireplace as deemed safe for a single family residence is 12,792. Officers have been instructed that structures constructed of a brick count less than this number for a single family residence are to be considered in breach of the regulations.

Furthermore, the required brick count increases proportionally to the number of families living in the annexed dwelling as follows:

1 Family = 12,792
2 Families = 1 Family's brick count times 1.5 (this is known as the coefficient of safety, as prescribed by Dolores Umbridge, Director of California Fire Inc.).

..and so the scale goes.

As Dolores so eloquently put it: "The fuel used does not matter - it's all about the brick count".

Below is a picture of a compliant 1 Family BBQ/Fireplace:
