On the show today we've got elevator news and an author. I had the opportunity to interview John O’Donoghue, coauthor of the new book, Elevator and Escalator Rescue a Comprehensive Guide. Not only a great book for firefighters it also is a great reference for any elevator professional. It truly provides a unique firefighters perspective on elevators and escalators. I was surprised at how much I learned from it. I’ll be giving a way a copy of it in Mays prize pack giveaway along with an emergency radio. Please take the time this Memorial Day to remember those soldiers who have lost their lives to defend our freedom. Also take the time to thank a veteran for serving. Calendar Links

Back from Atlanta I learn quite a bit from the speakers at NAVTP. Very enlightening stuff.  It was very enjoyable trip and I enjoyed talking with everyone. As with any trip the best part about going is coming home to family. I hope you like the new layout shown below. I've had many people mention that it's difficult to read the show links when they are all grouped together. Have a great rest of the week everyone. Thanks for tuning in.
