To begin with Joe Bruno, the OEM commisioner, couldn't figure out how to put out an office waste paper can fire with a 10,000 gpm pumper parked outside his office. He is an ex fire commissioner and no one really took him seriously when he was suppose to be doing his job. Maybe Ben Ward and Ed Koch, but no one else.
The guy's all smoke and mirrors and no brains.
Wow! A $10,000 award for coming up with solutions for a potential multi multi billion dollar problem. Isn't that why we pay taxes for these fools that sit around waiting for the apocalypse? What do these people do day in and day out? Order out for doughnuts?
New York witnessed their great response a few months back with the Con Ed blackouts. They don't have a clue.
