it is really funny how one guy using three different screen names on three different bulletin boards could stir up this much crap. all of this came from one person and mushroomed. not really sure if they know how much of a problem this has caused in real life way beyond the buff world, or if they really care. might they get the contract tomorrow, this week, next week, next month, maybe. but until an official announcement came, he should not have said anything. you would think an announcement this big for the vendor would be on their website immediately. 3 days later not there-because it never happened...but a whole mess of problems has been opened up. good job on the scoop!

Mike, in many ways the internet has just made a few million more washwomen. I get the emails from FDNY on Yahoo and some yahoo (pun intended) HAD to be the first to release Lt. Rich Nappi's name BEFORE the job did officially. Pissed a lot of people off (like here) and it seems today that everyone has to be the first, common sense and decency be damned. So be it fire apparatus, or a LODD name to release, or to just be an asshole, we now have the internet to spread rumors faster and any gaggling group of women ever could. Saw some HFD guys at the funeral, didnt get a chance to say hello to them
Stay safe, Brothers.

Stay safe, Brothers.
Kill 'em all, let Allah sort 'em out. NEVER forget 9/11/01 WTC, Pentagon, Pa. Avenge the acts with NO mercy.
Thanks to ALL the Brothers who were there 9/11/01 and afterwards. Words can never say what appreciation we have for you all.
