You're right.   There's a huge stockpile of broken and shattered dreams
in Big D.

Memo to the Munce:  I know, I know, stick to sprinklers.  But it's just
so darned EXCITING.  We're pro sports Siberia out here ...

I already thought of that, but in the case I'm looking at now there
isn't
any fire-proofing.  Maybe we could fill the voids with the broken dreams
of
Patriot fans everywhere ...

We currently are doing a panel construction parking structure under a
mixed
use building, and are relying on the fire proofing to fill those voids.
The spray on application generally does a pretty good job.
