About 150 people were evacuated from the Chittenden Bank Operation Center on Putney Road in Brattleboro on August 27, after a smoky fire set off alarms in the building. A rack of backup batteries overheated and melted, filling the steel maintenance room behind the offices with smoke, the Brattleboro fire chief said at the scene. The chief said the fire was relatively easy to contain, but cutting off power to the building was challenging because of the large amount of machinery and technology in the building. He also said the backup generators had to be disconnected to make sure they did not kick in when the power was cut. The Putney Road security manager said the batteries that burned were fairly new and had been updated within the past 10 years and inspected. http://www.reformer.com/localnews/ci_13219937 ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) rslade () vcn bc ca slade () victoria tc ca rslade () computercrime org We're born, we live a little while, we die ...
