    I just wondered, because our town is full of Haz Mat Techs. The police, Fire, water treatment, city services...etc. I guess since we are neighbors will O.L.D we would want alot of Techs between our city and the big dump h*** north of use. There are 7 of our firemen on the Sansuky County Haz Mat Team as well.

    I wasn't messing w/you.

    Stay Safe,
    John

    Hi John. Thanks for joining the group!
    For the past 8 years I have been researching different methods of breathing with SCBA. My interest started after I ran out of air myself. Fortunately for me the outcome was only a good scare. When I started my research about air management, I was surprised to find out that there was no teachings on how to breathe with SCBA.
    Since then I have developed a breathing technique of my own, and the process to evaluate what technique works best for the individual. shoot me an email at kevin@firefightersafety.net and I'll be happy to give you any info I have on the subject.
    Maybe together we can come up with some good content for the group.
