Prayers go out to Randy and those affected as Pratt Institute Suffers from fire. Randy if any help is needed please don't hesistate to ask. We have enough tanks to house the Institute's livestock temporarily in case they are at risk from smoke or structural damage to the building. Please do not hesitate to call on us.

I think this was not in an area that affected Randy if my recollection of the Pratt buildings serves me correct.

It looked like Higgins Hall from the top of the building, but I could be wrong. many of the Pratt buildings look alike based on the architecture of the time.

I called his cell - no answer, so if anyone hears, please let everyone know.

Gladly no one was in the building and no one was injured.

Glad to Hear Randy! We will be in the area maybe this weekend. Would love to see how it is doing. I will PM you with R&D emails we set up to monitor changes and progress in clients tanks and would appreciate a monthly snap shot even off a phone camera. Again glad to hear you and your building are not affected.

Hey Everyone. Thanks for your concern. My family and Tanks are fine. The fire was 2 buildings over and confined to the 6th floor and roof. No one was injured, but the building has serious damage. The worst hit of course were the students who had their work lost in the fire. In some cases, years worth of irreplaceable hard work.

I'm actually heading out of town later today, so updates will be few and far between, but again thanks, we are fine.

glad everything is ok. it is unfortunate that an ordeal like this has happened and the loss of work is irreplacable, but if everyone still is ok... that's all that truly matters.
