Plan "B", as in Bail

To handle the basement, a Puddle Sucker (more formally known as a Submersible Utility Pump) has been obtained. It's not a automated sump pump, but we don't need a permanent installation like that anyway.

At up to 1260 gallons per hour (~ 21 gallons a minute), the puddle sucker can handle one beast of a puddle. We figure with the basement floor covered, we have only have ~ 80 gallons or so.
