Dang! I got ripped off. I don't have a little red button. Got two
pull strings and a smoke detector that rats me out if I contribute to
the local smog, tripped that for the first time a couple of weeks ago.
No fire, just smoke, and 2 maintenance guys showed up pretty fast.
They test things often around here. It gets really loud when they set
off the alarms, I put my "over the ears" headphones on.
