Reply #255: The only reason you need the helo is

[nadinbrzezinski]

to transport not only VIPs who fall on the slopes, but trauma pt across the province... and I don't expect them to fly in the winter time, truly, god awful weather you got

I know about the equipment and all that crap as well... let me see, should we get ten suction machines or one heart monitor? Hmmm... or the ... we need a CT scanner, how much are they? Damn... but we need one... hmmm

And the helmets, I see them for the bunny slopes, for them lessons for everybody... after that... well like bike helmets in cali

Kiddies need to wear them... adults, on a purely volunteer basis

I wear mine... but then again, wearing my helmet in an ambulance religiously saved my nogging twice... I killed two helmets in the process

:-)

I still have one... nice and soft where my side of the head would have been hit, and most likely fractured...
