SolRo - 2015-02-20 a properly designed and built sprinkler system should be able to handle a small fire in one apartment, IZ

infinite zest - 2015-02-20 Yeah I guess you're right. I've actually never lived in a place with sprinklers so I didn't think about that. Rich idiot it is!

SolRo - 2015-02-21 The fire is out and there were no injuries or deaths, looks like they got the evacuation systems right.

Oscar Wildcat - 2015-02-21 One witness on the Beeb reported seeing meter long panels that encased the building catching fire in the high winds. Presumably this is what carried the fire 20 floors up so quickly. Makes me wonder if the panels were made of aluminum (grin). Aptly named.

John Holmes Motherfucker - 2015-02-21 According to wikipedia, the Torch Tower opened in 2011. I have to believe that when one of the most elaborate buildings in the world catches fire less than four years after opening, something fucked up is happening.
