    Unbelievable, how in hell did they expect to get away with it? Surely they did not think that the EMT registration would just be rubber stamped on their say so. I really feel for the students as they joined the class in good faith, and if the class was up to scratch, then they have put in the work for no reward. I would think that some heads will be rolling for this débâcle.

    If a man is alone in the forest with no woman to hear him, is he still wrong?

    The WDIV video won't play for me. Can you post a link to the stories on either NPR or CNN, because I couldn't find them there.
    If ignorance is bliss, I guess I'm one happy mofo.

    Not certain where those links were. I'll try to post it in HTML or something lol!

    The traning Captain has been suspended LWOPCA. I'm pretty certain that the training division will now be tossed out on its ass by the state.

    One of the guys I work with said it hit both NPR and CNN. I just went on his word and haven't had the time to check the validity.

    LWOPCA

    I'm pretty good at most acronyms, but I have no clue as to what this means.
    Trust me, I'm a medic. This won't hurt....me. You? I'm not so sure, probably a lot.

    Leave without pay pending commissioners action.

    Not sure Pat, you may have to attempt to get onto WDIV's website and enter that into their search bro.

    Are your codecs up to date, check your drivers. Are you on Firefox, I got video straight away, so not the link that is the problem.
