...biggest problem with sanitizing a structure like the Hart Building is that it's so enormous: nine stories tall and 10 million cu. ft. in volume, with a 100-ft. atrium at its center. Perhaps the most direct way to clean the place is with Sandia foam, a shaving cream-like decontaminant that works by oxidizing and destroying the anthrax spore's outer shell. But it's not clear how you would apply the killer suds to a structure as complex as the Hart, or how you would do it without gunking up computers and other equipment...
...plan got that second look, and it was scrapped--or at least scaled back. Last week the EPA began spreading Sandia foam on a contaminated stairwell and freight elevator. Next, the ventilation system, Senator Tom Daschle's office and perhaps a neighboring office will be treated with chlorine dioxide. Only if tests show that parts of Hart are still contaminated will officials reconsider gassing the whole building...
...sorting facility remains closed until it can be cleaned, and postal employees in New York City filed a suit--which a federal judge rejected on Friday--to have the Morgan processing center, where anthrax also turned up, shuttered and sanitized. Morgan's infected machines can likely be cleaned with foam, but Brentwood, where the anthrax was aerosolized, probably needs a full gas bombing. Unlike Hart, the warehouse-like Brentwood may be a good candidate for building-wide gassing, since it has no carpeting or decorations to damage...
...moniker Preston School of Industry. Preston’s debut album, All This Sounds Gas, is an album of shameless, shambolic and possibly pointless waster-rock, it is also a wonderfully pretentionless record of a band diving head-first into their record collection like one of those big foam-rubber pits and throwing stuff around to their hearts’ content. It is hard to imagine that the School take their music half as seriously as many of their Pavement-mourning listeners will. Others, however, can simply enjoy the infectious irreverence...
...evening progressed, the cast went from merely wiping paint on dancers, to squirting them with the stuff, to instigating fights with foam noodles. And while some may prefer more recognizable tunes (á là the Leverett 80s dance), Boch has done Harvard a service by showcasing alternative theater uses for the dramatic community and simultaneously welcoming the Class of ’05 with an example of the kind of fun creative people can have before they...
