Hey guys, A long time ago, i remember my firehouse (before i even joined)
used to sound the sirens, at the house, to alert firefighters to fires, i believe, and they used to do it at noon too.. But they don't do it anymore. No fire company in the area does it anymore, only for some parades. Why is this? i mean, we have pagers to alert us but didn't the sirens serve another purpose too?
I miss them, that was such a rush! :P

I live in what we like to call "SCANNERVILLE"! No need for the siren to let them all know we have a call. The most desolate streets will become the busiest in the city if we have a fire call.
