That's probably not what it is though.

I've randomly smelt stuff before and didnt know what it was but it eventually went away. :dunno:
I dont' know... but I don't think it would be a problem if you reported it to fire department. They might have better things to do, but if not, I don't see why they would be inconvienced, since you are reporting a potentially dangerous situation. And they should be able to figure out where it is coming from.

my mom did that once, our dishwasher was smoking. 3 firetrucks come only to find out that it was just a plastic spoon that had melted.
