China building fire
The leading internationl news today was about a high rise building completely burned by a fire in China. One reason the building couldn't be saved was because the fire fighters did not have equipment that reached beyond the twelfth floor. I was immediately reminded of all the new construction of very modernistic high-rise buildings in Bangalore and Gurgaon . Do the fire departments there have equipment to extinguish a blaze on higher floors? India is no stranger to enthusiastic and unsafe fireworks use during Diwali season.
