San Jose, California - An office worker cleaning a fridge full of rotten food created a smell so noxious that it sent seven co-workers to the hospital and made many others ill. Firefighters had to evacuate the AT&T building in downtown San Jose on Tuesday, after the flagrant fumes prompted someone to call 911. A hazmat team was called in.
What they found was an unplugged refrigerator that had been crammed with moldy food.
Authorities said an enterprising office worker had decided to clean it out, placing the food in a conference room while using two cleaning chemicals to scrub down the mess. The mixture of old lunches and disinfectant caused 28 people to need treatment for vomiting and nausea.
Authorities said the worker who cleaned the fridge didn't need treatment - she can't smell because of allergies.

Who needs Weapons labs .............when u can grow your WDM......in your fridge...............Ive opened up a few dis-guarded refers in the past and it was always the smell that u first notice and then the sight of the growth of fungus all over the place, but by that time it was to late.....slamming shutting the door was the wrong approach as u have already been infected and would be the slamming of the door as it created more problems as to opposed to gently closing the door..........as not to continue spreading the dangerous moldy dust...................everywhere.....?
