McGill Microwaves: The Definitive List

At my time at McGill, I have constantly been thwarted by my lack of microwave location knowledge. We have all felt the struggle of packing food at an ungodly hour in the morning and then studying in a building where we do not know the microwave location or if there even is a microwave! I never want to eat cold chili on a bench ever again. Please help me in this quest by commenting below if there is a microwave location that is not on this list, or if information is missing or wrong. I will edit the post to make sure the list stays current. And spread the word! Microwaves for all!
