That's true. About ten years ago I had just pulled in to a car show, parked my car, and was standing beside it when a little girl, about the age of three, made a bee-line running straight for my still very hot primary pipes. Her moron dad was totally oblivious. I snatched the girl up about two feet away from the pipes and handed her back to her dad. When I told him she was about to run in to my hot pipes he said "oh, sorry... I guess I should watch her better."
