If I recall, during hurricane Hugo a Sprint CO flooded. They kept
the water from coming in the doors, but didn't have a snorkal for the
generator.
Although its great fun to discuss different disasters which can
hit buildings, a fundamental principle is a you can't protect a
single building, even a bunker, from everything.
