But in reality there are thousands upon thousands of fire departments across the country so there still aren't many fires across the country. <br /><br />I think most of these so called fires are fire engine responses and not actual fires. They also include little mulch fires and grass fires. No big deal. Still doesn't justify having over 60 paid firemen in Salisbury, Maryland.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-24295165166920082702013-09-24T19:11:21.138-04:002013-09-24T19:11:21.138-04:00Well, if you don't put it out the local "...

Adds more work for home construction, as well as more work for home renovations(examine what happens once sprinklers do start sprinkling), and keeps people safer. <br /><br /><br />The flipside to that is, I remember growing up in a neighborhood down Nanticoke Rd(this was in the winter of 2002)...seeing a home catch fire 3 times in the course of 5 hours. Because fire dept. crews were not thorough in making sure the fire was out. Sad sight to see for a great neighbor of mine.
