Quotes

"I use it on the kids and don't use it as much on me. I'm just thinking that's really silly" said Cheryl Myers of Kennewick
"There are just no homes left, not even recognizable homes. And so when you have power lines down, gas lines are shut down, telephone lines severed, the streets are completely covered with trees or litter, water, it's quite hard for crews to get in and do the restoration until they clear the areas, and render them safe. So it's been very difficult for them" said Spracklen
"Training is extremely important in this industry. One, because we want to maintain proficiency, and be able to handle situations that may come down the path, also instill confidence in the folks around us. The public around us wants to make sure that the people operating the plants are capable of handling any situation that may come down the road" said James Redwine, simulator supervisor
"Everyone's excited that we don't have school right now, and I think everybody's just enjoying the day off and getting to relax" said Peter Clinton
