And for the record I agree with the comment about peoples sense of entitlement. Too many people these days want to pass the buck and put their responsibilities onto someone else which I don't agree with. But to compare this to car insurance or an electric bill is like comparing apples to baseballs. Yeah they're both round but that's where the comparison ends.

 

I don't know how much it cost to put out fires but like someone said $75 probably doesn't cover shit to put that fire out. But that's exactly my point! Why ruin/ put peoples lives at risk because you couldn't collect 5% (just a guess) of the cost up front. Hell charge him $150 after the fact but don't just stand there and watch.

$150 sure as hell wont even put a dent in fixing or replacing the car that RC K9 just had destroyed in an accident. However, you, me, him and every other person on this site paying $150 a month will easily cover it. It is basically fire insurance. No ones life was in danger it was a property loss and lack of insurance issue. Why should everyone else in the county that wanted to have the insurance have to pay $1500 ($75/yr for the last 20 yrs it has been a law) and he gets to pay $75 or even the $150 you suggested on the day of the fire. Like they say hindsight is 20/20. Should have paid the $75/yr. Sorry about your losses and I bet he learned his lesson. Just like when a renter gets his stuff stolen, he will have renters insurance next time.

I understand the fee and the reason behind it. It is another town offering the service. But we're not talking about a cell phone or cable. We're talking about a house fire, a very serious situation. It sounds like a rural location and if the neighbors house was in danger imagine if it got hot enough to blow a gas tank? IMO they're putting people lives in danger over a $75 dollar fee and the fact they showed up just to stand there... I mean WTF? So if there were people trapped inside the Fire dept isn't responsible, they can just show up and watch.

 

A mans home, his memories and all of he personal possessions are now chard ash because of some bull shit fee. While the fire dept just stood there. How people can justify that over $75 is beyond me.

If you read what I posted or the link I posted they stated "If somebody is trapped in the house we're going to go because life safety is number one but we can't give the service away," Edmison said. "It's not South Fulton's problem. It's not Union City's problem. It's the county's problem. There is no county fire department."

We need to get that second class set up, we talked about it there. Sounds fun.

I'd definitely be interested in this.

After I posted I started reading some of the links.

http://www.wpsdlocal6.com/news/local/More-fallout-following-house-fire-104113489.html

"It's like car insurance," Edmison said. "I wish I could wait until I have an accident until I pay my premium on my car insurance, but it doesn't work that way. So why should the fire service be looked at anything different?"

Again, if the fire situation is life threatening, fire departments will respond. However, that was not the case with the fire in South Fulton Wednesday.

"If somebody is trapped in the house we're going to go because life safety is number one but we can't give the service away," Edmison said. "It's not South Fulton's problem. It's not Union City's problem. It's the county's problem. There is no county fire department."

So a Fire dept in Tennessee let this guys house burn to the ground all because he didn't pay a $75 annual fee up front...

I thought things like Fire and Police were part of paying taxes

If you read the article it says that a neighboring town provides fire support for them. Basically, the town he pays taxes to doesn't have fire service. If you want fir e service you pay the next town over $75. Essentially like any other service in the world. You want a cell phone? Pay us $49.99 up front for the first month and we turn your service on. Want car insurance? Pay us $150 for next months coverage. Him calling up and offering to pay the $75 in no different then you running into someone at a stop light, calling Geico and saying "Hey, I know I have never paid for your service in the past BUT, if I give you $150 now will you cover this accident?" It costs a hell of a lot more then $75 to fight that fire. In order to cover it, everybody that wants coverage for that year pays $75 up front. Pretty cheap if you ask me.

anybody know of any laying around? looking to buy a s2k with blown up motor.

 

let me know if you know of any around

Are you looking for a roller/car with a bad motor or a motor? Your title seems to say the opposite of what your thread says.

Thats what i wanted but didnt feel like dealing with all the specific water stuff...went with oscars..ugh.

 

What kind do you have? And are they big enough to tell male/female yet?

I'll PM you for the sake of keeping the thread clean.

I am looking at putting a set of 275/35r15 on my Integra. Has anyone on here done this? I want to know what adapters are required, suspension modifications, etc. I know I cannot go lock to lock but, that is all I know so far.

are you going to discuss bugs in our area? i'd like to know more about our local bugs

Local stuff is always more interesting.

I highly suggest Tim Bostic and Charles Kronk for this class. Cost me $50 and a Saturday and I was all done. It is out in Mechanicsburg at the Police/Fire station. Then they take you out to the Mechanicsburg Police Range. It is an outdoor range so dress for the weather. If you get a group together again he may offer a discount.

I can't see the picture because I am at work. However, it sounds similar to my set up. I have a corner stand with 3 shelves. I have cut a 4" hole at each shelf level on each back face. I then bought a Nyko Intercooler for each system (360, PS3). I have not had any overheating issues. I do leave the doors on the front of the unit open any time the systems are on though. The nice thing about the Intercoolers is that they are temperature controlled.

Hope this helps.

I was suppose to receive a confirmation email when I talked to the guy last week and never heard anything back. Can you look and see what's going on?

Send me a PM with your information and I will look into it.
