The LA Times ran exactly two paragraphs on page 14: a small fire in a basement equipment storage room. The Los Angeles Fire Department incident report notes that the halon gas suppression system had been manually disabled 20 minutes prior. Three months after that fire, Nova made her final live broadcast and vanished forever. -- Nadia Tanaka -- Universität Hamburg Fachbereich Informatik "In theory there is no difference between theory and practice."
