    Concrete, steel girders, and server frames don’t combust easy, unfortunately.

      We need an insider to charge the halon fire suppression systems with propane instead.

      Or half oxygen half acetylene.

        It’s not about “attitude” it’s about thinking it through and finding a method of attack that would actually do damage that can’t be repaired in under a week if not ignored completely.

              See the rice attracts the Asians to come fix it overnight. There aren’t enough to fix something that big, especially with ICE getting rid of as many people as possible.
