Personally, I don't think anyone should ride for free. Even though my father has been a detective down there for 30 + years, it's not right that they keep raising it for the public, but let them ride for free. I'd say let them on for a reduced price, or make their own card that FDNY or NYPD has to pay for monthly or yearly. Even though its a train, it's still public transportation, and can't find that without a fee, and i think that should go for all. Speaking of trains, bridges also let PD and FD go through the tolls for free. Now, I could see why if there is a jumper or a emergency in the middle of the bridge( that goes for trains too, if theres a stabbing or a fire on the train, then it'd be fair), but to go someplace you really don't need to go to, or do, theres a fee, and it should be paid for all who use it, no matter who you are. Just my opinion.

Indeed Go to your profile, and go to the bottom left, you will see multiple tabs there, there will be one that says "Likes" click that one, and then you will be brought to the ones you have given out. If you don't want that, go to the top right (Of that box) and it will say, "Given & Recieved" press recieved, and that will take you to all of your posts, and it will show the person who liked it on the bottom right of the post. Hope that helped..

Not to bug you with more repuatation box posts again, but it used to say "excellent" or "building a reputation" i liked that feature on our profiles. I was just thinking new to the site members may view our profiles, and see a green box with a number in it, it always used to have writing in it, so I am not sure if its a mistake or something left out. Thanks for all of your work to the site, it looks great.

All brush fires in the area are now all contained and under control I believe, can anyone confirm that?

109 Departments- I think it'd be a little difficult to get it all...

The top priority is to leave with the same amount of people you came with.The worst thing that can happen is have a life is taken- or a someone is critically injured. It seems like the calls have calmed down, although many departments are going to "odor in the area" calls, not shocking.

Somers operated at a large one yesterday too.. Was about 3-5 acres, with treetops on fire too. They made a fire line through out the process, they remained o/s until about 19:30 approx. Was a job well done by all who were involved (especially the first IC before chief took over, that was a very well done job) anyways, Continental Village just got toned out- very dry land where it was reported- there is a red flag warning out and remaining out... Hope all remain safe..

I think it'd be easier to discuss or update on any brush fire that is happening in the area, on this thread instead of on the Shout box... I know that Ridge is fighting a massive brush fire right now, anyone with additional info feel free to fill us in..

Working for me fine, thanks Seth.

No worries, I saw your post on your FB Photography page

News 12 knows about as much as we do, we can collect as much info as they can. Only the police and possibly the FD that was O/S really knows the details on what happened, just reminding you that News 12 may not always be reliable. This was a livery cab the driver was seen pacing outside of the scene, while the passenger was trapped inside. She(the victim) was not the driver of the vehicle at the time of the crash.

. No after my hotline message I tried to post a shout about a working fire and just clicked the shout button and does nothing. Hope it's fixed soon I like that feature.. Anyways yes the speed is great today and the edit option is *always* there now instead of sometimes not, etc. Looking better and better Seth.

Exactly what I was thinking, although that point may be true on some cases, others it's not. My computers run great on the site, not a change in loading time or anything. Your points in this posts are very well said, and I am glad that it's " up to date" instead of an old, out of date, half working site, like some I have seen. I personally like the new look, it could use some little changes, but all in all I have no complaints. Good luck in the future with it.

http://www.LoHud.com/article/20120406/NEWS02/304060044 Very sad and horrible situation, from what I understand it was probably one of the drivers blind spot, which is always bad. Prayers go out to the victims family and friends, for such a tragic loss and in a horrible way.

Elmsford FD NEW Utility 86. Ford F550 Ladder 55- 1999 Pierce

The above photo I found interesting when I saw it in the ladder, it has the engine right to the right of the seat, and then a small seat "packed" in there... I have never seen that before in a ladder. Very interesting...

I was invited to visit Elmsford FD the other day, thought i'd share some photos that I got, not too many.. I didn't bring one of my Nikon's, so these photos are based off of my IPhone, which can sometime take good pictures, and sometimes not... This (larger) picture is Elmsford FD's TL 21- A 1993 Pierce Arrow.

Thank you Seth for adding the box back to our posts, the site looks great. I log on via my IPhone very often, and I usually press the "full version" button on the bottom, works just as well as anything else.

Theres an app? I can't find it on the App store...
