You make a lot of baseless assumptions, Steve.

Not even worth countering your comments with facts because you only hear or see what you want to hear or see, and you have proven over the years that facts are not your strong point.

A first responder, e.g. a paramedic or firefighter or police officer in an emergency will quickly take the appropriate actions to try to alleviate the problem to save lives or rescue people who are in danger.

First responders in emergencies don't take the moral high ground and waste valuable time lecturing the victims with shoulda-woulda-coulda's about actions which could have been taken years ago in the big picture. An emergency situation requires fast action to try to fix the problem or limit the damage, especially when people's health, safety or lives are in danger. That's what first aid is.

If you can't see that, then I thank God you are not a first responder.

Keep on saying what you want to say, over and over and over again. Keep on hijacking this thread, but you are missing the point.

Maybe the heatwave emergency is over and the tips from Texas to the UK for beating the heat can be filed away for future reference.
