sorry guys have been on vacation for a few days. i apologize for the article , it was sent to me from a friend on the east coast and had no idea it was a fake article. I posted it when I saw the first post of the transport engine and thought it tied in to it. as for ems being privatized, that is something that is being talked about here in orange county. for those of you who don't know , we have a oc board supervisor named john moorlach, who has been pushing to take ems away from the fire departments in orange county and give it to a private entity. at first it didn't get much support and was just floating around out there. however as city budgets continue to get tighter , there has been more talk about it. I know that costa mesa and Newport beach are now doing their own transports and know of at least 3 other cities looking at it or in transition. these cities feel it will be harder to privitize it if they are doing it all
