That's good. Sounds you were in a better place than your fellow

Even your tiny reference brings horrible images.
Good luck to all your fellow firefighters. In these recent fires, no fatalities among them yet, i hope.
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
