Hey, Wayne, is any of this “stuff” getting into the major news media of New York City?

I’m glad the issue is blaringly obvious in “The Chief” but this is something appropriate for the big leagues. It is something that endangers the entire civil service system and something Coombs either does not recognize or has come to believe needs to be eliminated.

Heard on the web....

Rebuttal to Vulcan President Firefighter John Coombs

Now to John Coombs (Feb. 15 letter). I hope the editor of this paper again grants me a large part of his publication for my letter, as I have quite a lot of comments to make regarding Firefighter Coombs. I'll be as brief as possible on each one.

First, the FDNY can hardly denounce my call for an investigation (which I herein repeat and offer my assistance in conducting) since it actually conducted one, half-hearted though it seemed. Next, John, if you believe my letter was a "tirade of deception" and that I speak half-truths and lies, then highlight and refute the deceptive points.
