Thanks for the great pictures Brian!

The whole add sounds like a scam!

Vassar's incoming board is great when they use it until you get to the room and it hasn't been cleaned from the last patient Computers - get used to them they are the future...now it's just getting used multi-tasking

I have had FIOS since June, I love it. No broken signal every 5 minutes, no "resetting" the time every night, When I had Cable several times a day I had to reboot the modem for the internet, FIOS not once. This past weekend when the big storm hit, several times the cable went out at my firehouse (a block away)Fios in my house stayed on no problems at all internet, TV, phone were 100% perfect. Thats just my experience. As for price, who ever you have it goes up every year.

Nice! I don't thinks its gonna break any land speed records going up main st though. I'll have to take a trip down there and have my Uncle show me the rig when it gets back.

Each has their own specialty. Both do the best they can. I am just glad that commercial EMS providers are greatly improved compared to a few years ago. As far as I'm concerned MLSS & Transcare are equal.

EMS contracts change so fast in Dutchess County that it's hard to keep up on who covers what!

There is one in Highland too just over the Mid-Hudson bridge

replying to the other question in this thread... Beacon received m/a from Roosevelt & Pleasant Valley due to the large number of calls. Southern Dutchess specifically, Beacon, Chelsea, Glenham, Rombout, Fishkill, Hughsonville & New Hamburg received over 30" of snow while the rest of the county got less than a foot. Call volume was very high and it put a toll on manpower of each department. I believe Pleasant Valley had there tanker in Beacon because most hydrants were buried in the snow and lack of electric at some water plants In southern Dutchess, the following departments have tankers: Dutchess Junction Glenham Chelsea Hughsonville (2) These are all in battalion 7 and all were busy as I stated above

As long as it's not that rain soaked snow we had last night. That crap is heavy!!!

They could easily buy something for 175k to do the same job. saving money in this crappy economy. But this is LI I wouldn't mind having most used apparatus from there. FD Spending on LI is ridiculous and is to blame for a lot of new financial rules across the state. It truly sounds like that area needs to consolidate!

I agree (should have had it listed as "beverages" LoL) Must have been one hell of a party

Interesting engine, I do not like the deck gun placement. If you have to spray water on the drivers side you are going to get drenched (worse than if you were on the ground.)
