I love the quote " I thought it was fake!" Why is that always the first response? Where is the fire education system failing to instill the proper amount of respect/fear of fire? Could it be because of the "Slap on the wrist" we give to those that set off false alarms, or that they are more common than actual fires? Somehow this really needs to change, or as a friend of mine is prone to say "People will Die!!"

Unusual to find an unsprinklered buildings left in State College, PA. The fire screwed up traffic after Penn State's Nittany Lions trounced Coastal Carolina 66-10 as JoePA tied for most # of wins by a college coach. Another record was tied as Michigan lost to Utah 25-23 in Michigan's second opening game loss to an underdog in a row, although there is not expected to be as much ridicule as when Michigan lost to Appalachian State in last year's opener. No traffic problems were reported in Ann Arbor as the humbled chicken-yellow and blue fans limped home. _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
