As a former volunteer firefighter, I was taught by my instructors that doing something potentially dangerous that slow is fast and doing it fast makes you slow. Because when one gets in a hurry, the safety process will inevitably break down. Everybody has heard about Murphy's law # one . " If anything can go wrong, it will go wrong at the most inopportune time." But everyone forgets that there's a second Murphy's law#2 ." Murphy is an optimist !"

Great work guys. As a upper-midwest fisherman it's real hazard to fish at night. A couple years ago i was cruising across a lake using my spotlight every 30 seconds or so and there it was. A boat had become untired and was out in the middle of the lake. I towed it to the nearest dock and tied it up. And the boat i was in is the one in my thumb nail.
