Why
Did they think they were going to make a misting station by aiming a hose full blast at an industrial fan? Because that's what it looks like.
Another interpretation
vertical frame mode ?
i'd, of course, would be able to see more of it if it wasnt recorded in stupid vertical resolution.

That looks like an electrocution hazard.
The Orange Line
I don't need an artist to remind me of the state of ennui I feel when I set foot on the Orange Line.

That's how Spidey used to beat Electro.
Every time.
Electro's weakness,
as I remember my Marvel Comics, was that he was _really stupid_.
A ruse so hackneyed it would make Stan Lee blush.
But yeah, water and electricity are a bad combo.
Wikipedia puts it this way...
"Electro has fought Spider-Man countless times, either on his own or as part of a group such as the Sinister Six. He has also fought such other heroes as Daredevil, the Fantastic Four, and the New Avengers. Despite his immense power, he has almost always been defeated, usually as a result of his foes outsmarting him or taking advantage of his weakness to water while charged."
If only he could just find a nice girl and settle down.

True, and I have this
True, and I have this internal argument often. While the water is not precious here, the electricity to clean it on both ends is. So I still try to conserve.
It's worth a penny a gallon
For most MWRA water districts, it costs about a penny a gallon all-in.
Not precious if you're talking about a drink of water. But a garden hose is 6 gallons a minute. That's $86 a day. $31 grand a year. It's real money.
Is that fan peeing on the wall?
If so, I'm with the OP. "WHY?!?"

Swampcooler? Albeit a dangerous one.
