assistant: Jumpgate opening in sector 'Emergency Medical Services', exclaimed Bruce!
Nope :)
I didn't start this thread, merely contributed. :)
I look through the messages, if the titles look interesting, then I go ahead
and read them.
Nope, but I am interested in the developments, being a bit of a scientist. I
watch the occasional documentary on things that are related to EMS, but there
aren't many..
I don't subscribe to any magazines however, for one thing, I wouldn't have
time to read them.
Who said I wasn't interested? I'm interested, but I simply haven't got a huge
amount of time to dedicate towards researching it. If I did have a lot of
ree
time, then sure, I'd be able to discuss the latest developments, and I'd be
happy to, but unfortunately, I don't. What I do have, however, is a lot of
stress :(
Not sure if this is actually covered by EMS, but what about the response
imes
of ambulances? Are there any ideas as to how to cut down on these times?
Erk! I didn't know I had any taglines like that! I better get rid of that.
See yas,
       Miah
