Oh yeah, Halon will fuck you right up.

If anyone happens to end up in a datacenter and the alarm goes off, leave the building.... Just go right outside. Do not stop and collect tools, do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

There are many centers that don't use Halon anymore and it's "safe" to stick around, but heck, if that alarm goes off, I'd still get out. Nothing I'm in there to do is more important than my continued survival. If it's actually safe, I'll get delayed by what? An hour? Two? Maybe a day? Who cares.

$200? Back in my days it was 4000. ;)
