[QUOTE]Originally posted by smitty195: [QB] Sort of off-topic, but Frank's comment about the emergency lights seeming so far away reminds me of my previous occupation. When things got heated and dangerous and I would call for emergency backup, I could hear the sirens coming but it always seemed like an eternity for backup to arrive. I was also a 911 supervisor at one time, and I would sometimes have to make copies of phone calls for complaints that would come in. People would say that they called 911 and "it took a half hour" for help to arrive, but the tapes clearly showed that help was there within 3 or 4 minutes of the first call. Our sense of time is very skewed when we are under stress. [/QB][/QUOTE]
