You would think that the maintenance people would know how to insulate pipes.

A couple of years ago a pipe leaked in a storage closet and I had to throw out all the supplies in there. Now I just keep plastic containers (paint, glue, etc.) in there. Mine wasn't the only room... it's all over the building, according to a phone call I received. I think they should just close the building tomorrow!
