Yeah, I didn't really believe their "whole building" claim; high rise fires usually only result in specific floors/areas being cut and alerting one above and one below. Since this seems to be a fire-on-the-floor issue (aren't these relatively rare?) vs. utility vault, I'd be very interested to know what kind of fire suppression was in place and how effective it was. As I check now they've redacted the whole building claim and are now saying 7th and 8th floors. ~Seth
