This is of course off-off-topic, but I would suspect the room temperature ultrasonic
misters, not dry ice or wood smoke.

I've tried to avoid stating the obvious reading through all this funny
thread, but I can't help it now.


Am I the only one thinking that shady lights, tropical fog, creepy
tunnels, blue/colored lights, and *waterfalls* are *bad* things in a
datacenter?

I mean, it make a good movie set, but seriously... I wouldn't want to be
looking for that damn blue "locator" LED on that 10th switch with a blue
neon light...

Not to mention dry ice = carbon dioxide which isn't particularly healthy
for the humans in that enclosed space.
