Cool Story Out of Lebanon - Firefighting Motorcycle

Actually, it is more of a scooter, but it is set up to fight fires in the historic coastal town of Sidon. They decided to take this route because so many of the streets in Sidon are ancient - maybe even based on thousands-of-years-old walking or horse paths - and thus are very narrow. Their firetrucks cannot get through and several fires have done extensive damage because of that fact. So, the Islamic Welfare Association (ISWA) has helped the city purchase and equip a scooter and trailer with the necessary gear to help squelch fires before they get too serious. It's a great idea that many other municipalities should think about for their own fire departments.
