Message: [QUOTE="cabbie191, post: 5028249, member: 417"] Two things stand out for me: On the personal side, helping rescue high school band students out of their crashed charter bus that ran into an overturned semi at 1:30 in the morning as they were returning from a state competition. The accident killed five, three of whom were friends of mine. Several survivors were air evacuated to multiple hospitals, some of whom were so injured their families couldn’t identify them at first. Leaking fuel all around. Horrible night. Professional: being asked to come out of retirement to take over and expand a hazardous waste collection program in Ann Arbor. Wound up doing it for 6 years. Very rewarding making a small contribution in hopefully making that part of the world a safer place to live. Came home after work sometimes in amazement at the materials folks brought in. Two most notable were nuclear waste (courtesy of a retired University of Michigan professor) and Agent Orange. [/QUOTE]
