Didn't the FDNY have a commisioner with the same name, SAFFIR?

Good catch, Gman.  Howard Safir worked for Giuliani from 1994 to 1996 as Fire Commissioner and then as Police Commissioner from 1996, when Bratton left, until 2000.  If memory serves, he was at DEA and the Marshals Service before coming to the City.

"Howeird" only had one F in the name......funny of all things a robot had a similar name.
