A faulty air conditioner blew up at a hotel in southern Turkey on Saturday, killing one person, officials said. An early report that a bomb had exploded was retracted.

| #8 I have worked around machinary of one type or another for many years and have never heard of an A/C unit exploding. Must not have been checked out by UL. Yeah right. |

| #6 I blame Bush. Somewhere in that air conditioner is a part made by Haliburton, and it fails deliberately in order to drive up profits from people buying replacements, which lets Halibruton have higher operating funds so as to drive their goal of stealing all the oil and killing all the baby ducks in the peace-loving muslim lands around the world and crush the dissent of protesting transgendered pink cardboard tank drivers in the enlightened EU. I need another hit, man. |

| #4 I believe they use nitroglycerin in their ACs. The liquid to gas phase change requires hardly any electric power at all. |

| #1 caused by gas buildup in the air conditioner,..."One person staying in the room was killed when the air conditioner exploded and collapsed the wall onto the person," Ormeci said Jeezus! WTH kinda air conditioner do they use over there? Propane and C4? |
