cool

Hi guys
Perhaps i am a little slow but in these extreme circumstances whats wrong with a deluge of nice cool water..an airport crash truck hooked up t6 a fire hydrant can deliver huge quantities ...
Back in the seventies on more than one occasion we used the airport fire service to hose down the control tower where i worked. Dumping large quantities on the roof and visual control room windows brought rapid relief when VCR temps were rising 100 plus..we had one ceiling fan and the only window that could open was the emergency exit...had to be very careful to ensure it was closed and that no staff on breaks were sunbathing on the roof.before letting the fire crews loose
just a thought
