"State Fire Marshal Johnson is the most senior U.S. fire official to make
a stand against ionization smoke alarms. His unequivocal position has
been a catalyst for statewide photoelectric legislation in the U.S. and
Australia, and for nationwide photoelectric legislation in New Zealand."

August 2007 | State Fire Marshal Issues
Urgent Warning About Ionization Smoke Alarms
"We have to sound our alarm now because the problem is, throughout Indiana and
throughout the nation, people have this false sense of security right now with smoke
detectors. I don't mean to scare people but I think we have five million smoke detectors
in this state that are ionization smoke detectors that may fail in the time of need."
