Glenn or anyone else has anyone ever heard of a "Klondike". I am a probationary firefighter with a paid department in upstate NY (Albany FD). The money that the guys in the station put together to buy regular station staples is what the call a klondike. I have searched allover the internet for the orgin and all i can find is about the river and gold rush. If that is the orgin do you now how and why the term madr it to the fire service. I have found that there a several other departments that use the term.

Mr. Corbett this is Michael Lewis. We met at Northern Kentucky for the beverly hills meeting. You showed me the pdf file for the Governor's Report. I got the pdf file and I was curious to who got the pdf and posted it in the file cabinet and how I could get in touch with them. Thank you very much and have a great day.

Dear Friend,

Please allow me to invite you to the group called HazMat Placards to Success. This group will allow firefighters to discuss a step by step process for a Hazardous Materials response. From the firefighter to the hazmat technician. The first step has been posted in the group, with many more steps to come.

Thank you!

Hey--

I actually knew the answer to the trivia question this week--about the fire plug!

I think I learned it from your Arcadia book.

Hope all's well.
