DH> What: newsgroup: ca.emergency

DH> Why: For the discussion of Emergency Services (Fire, EMS, Search and
DH>      Rescue, Law Enforcement) in California.  Possibly some reports on big
DH>      incidents (assuming someone with access to information volunteers).
DH>      Possibly someone with the information could also post special
DH>      training sessions/classes.  There could also be discussions of
DH>      supression and prevention techniques for fire; fire behavior; HAZMAT;
DH>      getting law enforcement to work with ICS; policy of letting EMT-1's
DH>      use defibillators and endotrachial tubes; establishment of a FEMA
DH>      rescue team (or whatever they call them) in Northern California, etc.,
DH>      etc.,.   (Do you know what a ladder gin is?)

First of all Dale, count me in!

Second, I would recommend adding "earthquake preparedness" (in LA, the
LAFD sponsors the "Emergency Response Team" which consists of training
and organizing neighborhoods for earthquake preparedness).
