I am not a pilot, but I have been a hazmat tech/fire fighter/paramedic. 
And let me tell you, between CO2 foam, water, and any of the other things 
they could use to keep a building from going up in that sort of 
situation, I would be very surprised if even the equipment would stay on 
much less talk to other pieces of equipment. 

I can't say I have tried running a Cisco 7513 from the bottom of a pool, 
but I don't think it is rated for an operational 100% humidity. :)

I know it was a joke, but thought I'd throw my $0.02 in.

crashed into the side of the Atlanta-NAP. The Atlanta-NAP is at 230
Peachtree on the 5th floor. There are two buildings around this building
that go up to the 8th floor. If a airplane was to crash in the Atlanta-NAP
