Sure, we've had snow for the last three (I think) winters, but you'd expect that to happen occasionally even in a region that hardly ever gets any snow. When did it last snow in the sahara? Anyway , the fact that it snows here at all should be enough for them to get their act together but every year it seems to come as a complete surprise that it snows in winter and every year we get the same tired old excuses. Its pathetic. B2003 |

Who's gonna pay for them? It's just not a good investment when they'd hardly ever be used. I've never once seen a Halon system in a computer room used in anger but you can be damn sure every serious company has one installed in theirs. What the hell is the cost of a couple of trucks and some grit compared to the millions, possibly even billions lost when everything grinds to a halt? B2003 |
