The vast majority
of the content of this site
was written with tongue planted firmly in cheek.
This site
was established on August 30, 1997 when 28.8K was still SMOKIN',
and was last
updated or tweaked for the thousand and umpteenth time on
June 7
,2008
(personnel,
timeless truths, training)
It is updated
whenever anything worthy of documentation happens,
or when the
webmaster remembers to bring his digital camera to the fire station.
Usually the
latter.

You can get one
of these (or something similar) HERE.

We've been operational
only about ten years, so we still can't tell you much about how
we do things around here. We're still figuring it out as we go.
We've "re-invented the wheel" a couple of times.
This web site is an attempt
to try to tell you who we are, where we are, what we've learned
so far, why we're doing this, who helped us do it, what we've
got going so far, and where we hope we're going from here.
And hopefully, to have
a laugh or two along the way. Some people may not understand this
stuff at all, but others will find that it hits WAY too close
to home.
