atheists and "conspiracy" theories

water's viscosity isn't important in cooling the metal enough to delay the heating @ fail temps. water that cools heated metal when forging swords isn't viscous, but it cools that red hot iron immediately to black. ok, well, i can't work on the guesses. i know there should be a sprinkler head every 400sf. there should be a damper at every vertical pipe, duct, penetration between floors and firestop at every horizontal penetration, duct, pipe. basically, buildings are built to contain a fire in one space, then wet it out. risers aren't placed at the exterior of a building, they're usually in the core (better insulated against weather is more efficient for heating/cooling). i doubt very few of the water supply was compromised. this would be horrible judgment on the designers' behalf.

hey, perhaps none of the systems implemented to prevent spread of fire, worked this day. i'd just be inclined to bet otherwise.
