"I called the management of Southern Cross Station here in Melbourne, Australia to report a lift motor temperature alarm that was sounding. A few weeks later I was at the station again and saw the fix: jam the screaming alarm full of duct tape. Sheer class."

Normally I'd be apprehensive to the idea of silencing screaming with duct tape, but this is far better than I expected. Phew!
