As a Canadian I鈥檓 surprised that the UK does not follow the standards in my country, where all buildings are timber and all are sprinklered. Even private homes have sprinklers and we all sleep well at night.

I accept that the fires reported in 精东影视 (13 April, page 9) were on buildings that were still under construction but you鈥檙e prejudicing a lot of people against a very efficient method of construction.
