    If the burner was lit it could have been CO. If it wasn't, it was more likely propane poisoning. And it if was lit and the coach smelled strongly of gas, the gas would have combusted. In other words, it doesn't sound right.

    Hmm, one of the burners were left on. Seems they should have smelled it before they fell asleep. Could be the difference between when you smell something but don't think its bad enough to do something about.

    Will check Nashville news this evening. Watched the 5:00 news from Jackson, and they didn't have anything. But that's not unusual. Nashville will probably have it on local after while.
