No-one's yet noticed that my Jim's house burning down is a problem for his neighbours.

Of course, that applies to cities, not to the country - but cities are where it's at.

We have volunteer fire depts. here in Texas (and most other states I've been in). Typicaly they have no equipment, no training, and no money. But, hey, they'll save the slab. ____________________________________________________________________ Lawyers ask the wrong questions when they don't want the right answers.
