Are electric blankets safe these days? I want one for Christmas, but my partner insists that they're a fire hazard! I said I'd ask a fireman, so this AMA is kinda perfectly timed :) thank you for your service - I once called out the firemen for something which turned out to be nothing, and the guy said "we'd much rather come out just to make sure it's nothing, than come out to something bad"

Could the SR-71 achieve high speed at a lower altitude, or was the atmosphere a limiting factor? Did you ever buzz cities at speed to scare them?!

Thank you :) I only plan to use one to warm up the bed before getting in - certainly not all night!

As an aside, the two omnibus editions aren't in KU? The individual books are. I prefer omnibus versions for shorter works, but now I'll read them individually.

I'm in England if that makes a difference to KU?
