Heh... Me and a friend emptied some chad bins in front of the fan (standing
on one of the cabinets) at a place I used to work. When night shift came in
they would just plug the fan in if the place got too warm. The plug was just
beside the cabinet... Next morning when I got back the guy who worked night
shift still had chad falling out of his hair... :-)
