From the picture it Look like the kinda place where if a banjo out of the sky, anybody who caught it would be able to play it.

Well, what's wrong with the picture anyway?
The Ice Bin is unplugged! Right?

I'd have gotten and looked around just to see how bad everything else was. I guess just morbid curiosity.

The ice machine needed to be located near the panel to keep the panel cool as the ice machine overloaded the panel. Just reach in the box and put a bag on top of the panel. ??
