DOT3 in the PS, instead of ATF??? WTF!!! 700

My wife has informed me she had to add fluid to the PS, because it was "heavy".I said we would have to pick some up, and she said she found some in the trunk.Whhaa??? Brake fluid! She emptied the bottle.I can see where the excess pumped out through the cap, onto the inner fender.
Anyone ever experience similar situation? Any ill effects?I want to pull the return hose off and run it dry.I hope the DOT3 doesn't ruin the pump or racks seals.(She did this 2 weeks ago!)O.k, let the chuckling begin....Thanks
