DOS-based firefighting command simulator from the 80s/90s?
Back in the very early 90s, my fire department had a DOS-based program on the computer that would throw structure fire scenarios at you. You had to determine the number of alarms, what equipment to utilize, what hand lines to take into the building, rescue, ventilation, etc. At the conclusion of each scenario, you would receive a letter grade on your decisions and efficiency of extinguishing the fire. The graphics were very crude, with lines and blocks used for the buildings and trucks. I have been looking for this for years. It was not a typical game, but more of a training aid. Does anyone remember the name of this program?

2 AnswersPolls & Surveys9 years agoHow is requiring a photo i.d. going to stop eligible people from voting?
Why is this different from anything else where you HAVE to show your i. d.? This is a measure to keep people from voting more than once as different people, and to prevent other voter fraud.. There is no agenda to keep minorities and the elderly from voting.

15 AnswersPolitics9 years agoVodka, or bourbon? What is your medicine of choice?
If vodka was water, and I was a duck,
I would swim to the bottom and float to the top.
But, vodka is not water and I am not a duck,
so pass me the bottle and shut the heck up.

8 AnswersPolitics9 years agoIs it any wonder I left P & S?
I ask a silly question, and it gets reported/deleted? It was, "would you have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those darn meddling kids?" Last night I asked whether there was anyone on P & S that was on here 5 years ago, and THAT question got deleted, too. I guess I will stick to the politics section where people have thick skins and don't go whining to Yahoo for stupid stuff.
