- Things underground do that from time to time... wonder if we should put
-
- them overhead??? :-)

- WW>Turf hassles are surfacing about the 911 stuff, Police say they
- WW>should be in charge, Fire says, oughta be some combination control,
- EMS
- WW>is a private contractor and goes with the flow.
