i wonder why they do not some type of commercial helicopter that could hook up some water hose type arrangement to flood out floors like 29th, 39th etc. i assume weight, pressure, wind makes this impossible?

Thanks, Andrew. It certainly will be interesting to see what caused this Chicago fire. And possibly it's timing....was it a warning? If there were 400-500 people in the building at the time, and normally there are over 3000....perhaps a warning that worse could happen.

Let's hope not, and the cause is found. And if it was caused by a human or more....hopefully they will be found PDQ as well!
