Bjarney,
I agree with ya there, mate.
With the amount of smoke-damaged things I've seen after fires, most of it gets heaved anyway.
Water damage is something you don't really see a lot of these days(at least not over here), us Fire-fighters have pretty much got the technique of using a little bit of water to do a lot, down pat and it's getting better all the time!. [Linked Image]
The days of "surround and drown" are thankfully long gone.
