I got stuck working as a paramedic during the blizzard in January 1996 in NJ.
I was stuck on the truck for over 48 hours because no one was able to get in to relieve me. You would think that given how bad the weather was, people would only call 911 for real emergencies. You would think that, but you would be wrong. On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 12:18 PM, Eric Roberts <[email protected]> wrote: > > Yay! Finally excavated from our snowy enclosure.
