At 1:37pm on June 12th, 2008, Chris Mc Loone said…: I have Seasons I and II on DVD if you're looking to borrow them!

NBC.com has episodes of Emergency! running online too.

How is everything?

At 1:33pm on June 12th, 2008, Glenn Corbett said…: No problema, Chris. Download a few episodes of Emergency! for me....

Thanks for calling Di about my prize. She called me right away!

At 5:46pm on May 20th, 2008, David Lewis said…: Glenn, I'd be happy to take the lead, provided you are there to help back-me-up. *wink* . . . What do you envision this looking like? A web page, a discussion list, a "book"?

To some extent this project has already been done with your monthly trivia contests, and also on the great website created by Capt. Mica (check it out: http://www.captainmica.com )

At 1:48pm on May 20th, 2008, Glenn Corbett said…: Good idea, Kevin. David Lewis of the Aurora Fire Museum is in this group - I think he would be a great leader for this :"list" project. What say you, David?

At 3:51am on May 20th, 2008, Kevin F. Burns said…: I understand Glenn. I know what you mean. Maybe we could throw it out to the group ... a term a month or something like that. Is there a source you could suggest for research ... like if I want to find out why we call it a "still" alarm, where's a good place to look? Thanks.

At 12:58pm on May 19th, 2008, Bob Tucker said…: Thanks for the information

At 5:23am on May 19th, 2008, Kevin F. Burns said…: Dear Glenn: I wonder if you might consider a list of definitions of the history of fire service terms ... you've talked about them on the podcasts with Chief Lasky I know, but I'd love a "one stop shopping" place where I could look up, e.g., why do we call them "still" alarms, why is a hydrant called a "plug", etc. Maybe an alphabetical listing of fire service terms from a historical standpoint. I'd be happy to help if you need anything but you could probably do it off the top of your head! Thanks.

At 11:49am on May 17th, 2008, Bob Tucker said…: Glenn,
Thank you for all you do. I am interested in fire service history and have had trouble finding information on 2 fires. Is there a place you know of that I can get information on the 1849 St. Louis Fire or the Beverly Hills Social Cleb fire in Southgate Ky? Thank you for any help you can give me.

Bob T.
