    See? It's those little details like that I need to check on. Like driving through a red light when the dome light is on? Gotta work on this one a bit.

    I did hang that blue light in the truck, too. I wanted to see what that would do.

    We used to leave "endearing" notes to the navigaiton team in red. When we switched to low-level white, all that fun went out the window.......well.......if we had windows.

    We had to set up a makeshift landing area at the fire department for a helicopter to pick up a medical patient one night. We set the trucks in a circle in a field and when the chopper came into view, the pilot directed us to turn off all lights except the red ones. He said that anything except red was blinding to them. It seems to me that red light might be the best because of this. I may be wrong, but red is defiantly better that white.

    Well, if nothing else, it looked cool last night. And at my age, looking cool is kinda hard to come by. Now, if I can just get one of those stereos with the loud bass.......
