    Hey: Great to meet you. I totally agree these guys on this page need to loosen up. They can get pretty intense over nothing. You are right we should shake them up a little. I really just joined to learn from this site, but it sucked me in. There are some great people on here who are very proud to work in the fire service. I look forward to chatting with you throughout the pages. Great pictures on your page. And may HPL have a happy life -spud free :-) Heather
