Wildwood - I like the theory of too many firemen for too few fires. One fire means we should have one fireman, and so on. It takes roughly the same amount to do the job regardless of the number of fires. Hopefully, there will not be any fires. But when there is an emergency you want help fast, no excuses. And you want enough help to actually be able to save life and property. The numbers of firefighters available on parts of the island are dangerously low. Don't expect a handful of them to perform miracles. Just hope it doesn't happen to you. Buildings burn faster nowadays. Play the odds, bet your life.
