A word of caution about closed cooler boxes

I stripped down the cooler containing my 350D this morning after having run it a few hours last night. That sesson ended prematurely when the camera operation became flakey and BEOS didn't behave.

Not sure if this was the problem but when I opened it up this morning there was at least 2 tablespoons of liquid sloshing around inside it - dyed bright green (I suspect that's from the polystyrene dyes). I hadn't built in any drainage holes. I can see now that this might be a darned good idea.
