Perhaps people should realize that some gas lines were laid almost 90 years ago and have never been checked or upgraded

What is causing all these houses to explode? This has got to be at least the 6th one to do so over the last several months.

As a plumber I can tell you an explosion like this can be as simple as someone leaning up against the stove and turning one of the burner knobs on and then leaving, or going to take a nap, few hours later,, BOOM. but I will say that from most of the research I've done the majority of these house explosions seem to be intentional, like suicide or in some cases murder.
