have witnessed that same scenario more than once. The fire trucks arrived on the scene and all of the firefighters just stood around like helpless sheep until someone else arrived to tell them what to do. Just doesn't make any sense to me. It's like they train 20 guys to fight fire and only 1 to think, but unfortunately that is simply protocol for alot of the fire companies. Keep in mind that I'm am only referring to a couple of local volunteer fire departments during a couple of different incidents. Most firefighters I know are highly trained, think for themselves and give 120% everytime. It's the slackers that annoy me. Glad everyone is ok though. Material things can all be replaced.
My NA 2+2 may never be as fast as a Twin Turbo, but I sure look cool when I'm picking up my groceries.
