Stardock, turn down the AC in the offices tonight... and leave it down for a couple weeks.
Just to be on the safe side, I recommend filling the server room full of ice.
Liquid nitrogen is ok though! (also roughly -260 to -270 deg F)!
It is a great drying agent. Just don't go in the room without some type of forced breathing apparatus!
a better suggestion would be liquid nitrogen or even dry ice( solid co2), not ice.
