While others wait, action will forever write the history....

As we have been discussing what to do, it came to mind that many people are sitting around FDH, (check our previous session for the full meaning) waiting for an special ingraved inventation to do something, anything.....
I have seen this happen, many times in my brief life.... Once some years ago on 50th Street at the RxR crossing by Adamo Dr. in Tampa, FL. We saw a woman who had allowed the crossing gates to come down with her car on the tracks.... A switch engine was approching slowly, while she sat and screamed, doing nothing.... We ran out and one pulled the screaming woman out of her car, while the other drove the car off the tracks to safety....
Another time was on the undergroung Tram at the Atlanta Airport, and a Latin Lady was pushing her baby in a fold up stroller, onto the car... The warning sounded, but do not beleive she understood, and the doors were closing as the car prepared to move... There were a couple of Business Men standing by the door (FDH) doing nothing... So I sprang forward, disregarding the voice notice, "The doors are closing and can not be opened" I grasp the baby from the stroller, and pushing the two (FDH) individules out of the way, forcing the doors open, stopping the tram, handed the baby to his mother... Waited for the doors to recycle, with anothert alert, then proceeded on to baggage claim area...
These are just some of the lack of action I have wittnessed in my life...
This is not about playing hero or some other stuff, it is about someone doing something, not just playing FDH....
Having flown millions of miles, both as passanger and co-piolet, there are certain rules that are followed on aircraft... We can discuss all these later, the main point is when ever there is an "In Air Emergency", then all those rules and regulations go out the window, as what ever is necessary will be done to save the lives of those on the aircraft.... Keyword is someone has to do something, not stand around FDH.....
So start looking at life with a positive aspect, do something to help others....
