What gets me about it is that most of them will argue till kingdom day that its "ok", because the petstore doesn't sell thermostats..sigh.

Its sad how often you see BP's with burned bellies. Its a shame, actually. Perhaps they SHOULD sell real thermostats in pet stores or at the least advise people that they need to use them. As a matter of fact, it should say that on the UTH packaging and in the instructions. Thermostat needed !

Why doesn't it ???
