Back in the early 80s, I was a System Tech, working in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia… My prime responsibility was the satellite-array, front-end computers and UPS… Attached to my list of responsibilities was site-security, plumbing and four 20 ton A/C units…
The A/C condensers would pump out almost freezing water, outside the building… There were a lot of feral animals around, including a small dog pack… You have to imagine the high core body temperature of the dogs (this was Jeddah, in the summer), suddenly being exposed to almost freezing water…
My responsibilities suddenly included the disposal of four dead dogs…
I’ve a very sad story to tell…
