Hank,
I just wanted to thank you for the updates you provide on your website, especially the 911 radio. I was awaken this morning by the explosions from the I-95 accident and was concerned since I did not know what was going on. The only place that had any information was portorangeareanews.com. I was surprised to see that even at that late hour, you were updating your website. Thanks again and I will make sure to always check on your website for local news.
