    Crooked Helipad?

    My guess is that these glasses look to be blue, but are probably green when lit.  Our helipads at work are green, marking the outline of the pad itself.  Just by looking at the glass, that's my guess.  As far as the pad being crooked?  That could be a purposful design to let water flow off the...

    Boston MIT shooting

    To add, the Mass. State Police, as well as other local agencies, stated that in fact, they didn't rob the store. Yes it was robbed, buy not by these guys. It was literally a coincidence that they were there when the store was being robbed. They were trying to chase after the guy who fled the SUV.

    When will enough, be enough??

    Feds to launch investigation into Detroit's failing EMS system - Fox 2 News Headlines I know that this thread is about the fire department, but I can't help but think that this is the positive kick. P.S., as a grow man, I almost lost it with the firefighter at the back of the rig.

    Personally, I think it is a good move. I think that it will be a change that everyone will have to get used to but, all in all I think it's an idea that not only would help them but be good for everyone. Now, with that said, maybe this should go in the unpopular opinion thread, but I think we...

    UPDATE: Ambulance is 'booted' while treating a patient.

    My questions were just general ones. :) Not really directed at anyone. :) Running the plate would fall under the "questioning" part of my statement. Maybe investigate would be a better choice of words. I agree, no one should boot a firetruck or ambulance because, as you stated, no one...
