Congratulations and good luck. Give them hell.

I must say, even as a Conservative, I always had high hopes with Governor Spitzer when he was Attorney General. He reminded me of Jack McCoy. But he was a liberal. Most of his policies went far aginst my beliefs. So its a bitter-sweet good riddance for me.

How do you change it? I can't figure it out

I would believe so. OSHA is a federal agency.

OK well 3 faxes have been sent to Assemblyman Abate and we also sent them to our local assemblyman, Greg Ball.

Yep, Putnam does. Goto www.pcbes.org and click on the EMS link.

This guy reminds me of OJ Simpson. Arrogant. Ignorant. OR BOTH.

Okay I must apologize and revise my previous post a tiny bit(hopefully my mix up is a testament to how little we have to use this protocol: In Putnam mutual aid for a fire department with no response goes like this: Initial Dispatch Wait 4 minutes Second Dispatch (if no response) Wait 4 minutes Third Dispatch (if no response) Wait 2 minutes If still no response from base, automatic mutual aid; if the base does sign on but does not have the manpower to respond, the base is asked if they want more tones or mutual aid. So this cuts it down to 10 minutes.

Well unfortunately that is current protocol in Putnam County. And yes it is pretty much put on whoever is their at the base. We will unofficially try to prompt the base to m/a if we have to.
