This is a great point. We need more indepth videos and training materials involving HCN. My department has been monitoring for CO and HCN during overhaul and after for about a year now. We get alot of strange looks from other departments when we brake out our HCN meter. A lot have not idea the dangers that come with HCN and CO. I don't think enough is being said about this. I had a member of the local Haz-mat team at one incident try and convince me it was H2S NOT HCN. Very troubling!
