That is pretty epic. I have too much common sense/professional pride to not do that. If it was just me I might do it, but never when being employed and representing an organization. Especially when representing an official government organization, that people are supposed to trust.

Amazing there were only one or two fatalities from that crash. (Apparently they were hit by the fire truck).
So I feel a little better about LMAO. Smile
Two or three of those names would be good names for tasteless/offensive null sec toons.

A 3rd victim has died. She was missed in the initial confusion, as she had been buried under a few feet of of fire fighting insulation foam. http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/SF-plane-crash-3rd-victim-also-in-student-group-4663804.php
