Yes, they should have left a watch line for 5 years! :D

Any idea why they don't use a standard NATO phonetic alphabet like most other organizations do? It seems like it would result in a lot less confusion.

I still can't understand why fire departments think they need to have their communication is encrypted. Has anybody ever heard a reasonable explanation for this?

Hopefully the suppression systems are defined appropriately so that all the responding fire departments we have to do is put out hotspots and cleanup the leftovers.

They actually have also blamed command personnel including 2 admirals!

PC should be thrown out the window during an emergency! As you mentioned, Blue States are completely losing control and unfortunately it's only getting worse!

My prediction is just the opposite, I believe the courts will throw the lawsuit out. And the only people that will lose will be the lawyers who will collect their millions! It's not as if Walmart is going to go broke over this.

If the information provided earlier about the call volume is accurate I don't see how they justify keeping it open this long! Obviously we all hate to see a fire station closed but...

I believe that 2 of the bays have the crawlers in them, one for Artemis and the other for something else. That's how it was when the shuttle were launching, I'm sure they have to keep both crawlers inside when not in use for maintenance considerations.

I'm also sure they have a lot of money to spend on Narcan but I don't have money to put it where it's really needed!

Not sure if it's true or not but it certainly sounds like something Hilary would do!

Looks like Westside Rag must have a British reporter writing for them. Nobody in the states set set the fire departments were "attending" the fire! Makes it sound like you're going to a tea party!

As mentioned much earlier in the thread, one was used very successfully in Paris for the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral. It went inside the building even though there is a huge possibility of a collapse and it wasn't safe to send firefighters in! From what I've read several different places it's...

It costs $350,000 more than a conventional fire engine! I love the fact that it's on the streets and Hollywood, talk about just showing out to the public!

What approach did Madison take?

The problem with this idea is that unlike your Sprint, these trucks don't have a conventional IC engine, they just have electric motors for the drives. Thus in order to have a fuel tank that it could be switched over to they would have to install another complete drive system in the trucks.

There are a fantastic piece of equipment and much more effective than helicopters because they carry more water and have a much quicker turnaround from refilling to dropping to refilling etc.! As long as you have a lake in the vicinity they are much better!

I wish they had run over that motorcycle that cut in front of them when they were responding! New York has some of the world's worst drivers and bicycles for that matter.
