Well...<g>... that too has its pros and a little con. Remember to turn
that grill off or you can run up one heck of a gas bill. My step-son forgot
once and left it on for days. BIG NATURAL GAS BILL! My husband forget once
and it was just overnight so it didn't do much damage to the bill. It was
however the only time he forgot... so far...
