Is Watch Duty primarily “out West” or is it available across the whole US?
Their map shows the area of coverage
Texas and Oklahoma appear to be the further East for now

@Nrussell88 may be able to provide insight into future coverage areas, and I would think (read: rampantly speculate) that expansion might take significant resources (building out a local-ish team of volunteers, integrating technological resources that may/may not exist back east, etc) and is likely not the quickest or easiest of undertakings to implement.
It also stands to reason that expansion into un- and under-served areas could be significantly easier with a grassroots effort and a group of dedicated potential reporters up and ready to go… but, again, I don’t know any of this to be true.
I do know that the Watch Duty team is working hard to deliver an outstanding resource for the areas that are currently served…

Posting old emerging tech content because i don’t hear anyone kicking this not new idea around. Did it get bought & hidden by a corporation or individual(s) like zero point energy and other great ideas that turn out to be threats to existing tech? Seems like the brainy smart folks catching rockets with tweezers et al could help bring this idea to life? But what do i kno… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vycNvJYsc6U

That is just a fancy way of blowing out a fire with air. Only works if the fire is so weak that it is dependent on the flame to continue combustion and not the underlying built up heat. I am 100% sure the effect would be similar to a leaf blower if used on an established fire.

Hey all, I was on a linkedin webinar recently to talk about TAK and we kick it off with Yarnell/GM entrapment. I think it really drives home the message…yes I get teary eyed.
