Jay Jorgen, 4312, wants to know, Ian, how do you replicate realistic water mapping inside shipping container structures? Do you modify them in any way?
27:42
That is a tough one because unless you're willing to do a lot of welding and a lot of work, you're going to have those ripples in the side and in the ceilings.
27:52
I've just dealt with it.
27:57
When we go someplace and we teach a class, we're not asking them to modify stuff like that.
28:02
uh you just have to have the nozzleman just be a little more deliberate they go a little slower they map a little more um which a lot of times you have to do in fixed facilities anyway especially this uh the metal ones because they retain so much heat if you don't slow the nozzleman down have them coat those walls and the ceiling a little more than they normally would it'll still just be ripping hot in the hallway going towards the fire room and in the fire room itself so When you slow them down, when you make sure that they're more deliberate, it doesn't really matter that the walls and the ceiling aren't guiding the water the way it normally would.
28:44
And then the other big thing in shipping containers is the noise.
28:48
You don't get the auditory feedback as clearly because the walls are so loud.

Where's it sitting at as far as you know?
6:05
Um, can you tell our listeners a little bit more about Dice for Diversity and what you do?
6:09
Yep.
6:10
Uh, Dice for Diversity, uh, we provide a service teaching social and communication skills to people with, with neurodiversity.
6:18
We've been doing this for almost six years, and we have 130-odd people coming.
6:25
We play Dungeons and Dragons, um, as our basis to teach s- our, our program about communication and social skills.
6:32
It seems pretty successful.
6:34
Canberra's a big town, big country town, and if we were doing it wrong, then people wouldn't keep coming back, and they do keep coming back.
6:58
Can you tell us a little bit about why you came to Comic Con this weekend?
