Captain Busy said… - Ok, so maybe I'm being ultra-conservative here... I just know that you can google stuff and have separate FFN pages come up based on the language in the text. You cannot assume that only FFN folks read the posts. You have much more training in this subject matter than I do, so I acquiesce to your decision here. And so, like all good firefighters who disagree sometimes... we move on, buy each other a beer and keep on keeping on (Joe Dirt)... : )
I have not looked to see where you are located but was wondering if you have heard of any of the internet stuff talking about a nationwide terroristic strike between the 19th and 23rd? Do you have any association with your local CST? Have you trained for the zoonotic diseases? Are you going to the EPA sponsored Terrorism Bomb & Explosive Update Seminar next week in Los Angeles?
Stay safe,
Mike
