Again with the Beeping
How is it that no one seems to be able to hear the battery warning on their smoke alarms? Last year I went through a period where it seemed like every alarm in the building needed a new battery (NYC started requiring CO2 alarms just recently so they had all been installed at the same time, and likely the batteries all started going at the same time...). About that same time someone whose apartment faces the alley had an alarm that began making its warning, and it continued for nearly 2 months. It drove me BATTY. I sincerely don't understand why the occupant of the apartment can't hear it. A loud, single beep that repeats every 60 seconds. How does that NOT make you crazy enough to track it down and fix it? I don't get it. Tonight, I heard a beep from the alley. It has repeated every 60 seconds since then. I have no idea which building or apartment it is coming from, but it has been happening for at least 5 hours now. We'll see how many days it lasts...
