316. Fire Training (5)

Background

Mandatory Fire Training at the hospital.  Packed lecture theatre, darkened room, Trainer silhouetted against his PowerPoint presentation, seriously emphasising point by point.  After all, the lives of patients as well as our own could depend on getting it right...

Trainer:  So how did the fire spread?  It would depend on the causation of the fire.... And if there's a gas cannister nearby then the causation is less important and you'll get an intensification of in the rate of burning situation...

(eh?)

.... in other words an explosion.

(ah!)
