wow... this is a good thread. I was in the Dupont Plaza Fire in Puerto Rico many years ago as a kid, and to this day I have nightmares of burning alive.
All of these and more are good advice.
I just stayed in the DuPont Plaza, now known as the San Juan Marriott Stellaris hotel and casino.
I remember reading the story about the fire in readers digest in 1987. I was quite curious to find that the hotel hadn't changed too much from the fire research schematics, but it made me feel wierd to have stood and looked out at the ocean from a place where so many died.
