Sirens
It is almost midnight - I have watched President Bush’s speech at the Republican National Convention (see one of my prior posts to learn more about the conventions). It was a good speech - it is going to be even more exciting when we get closer to the elections - I am looking forward to establishing the difference between the candidates even more firmly, and I’ll try to pass my knowledge on to you (as objectively as possible), when I know more.
What I really wanted to say was that, actually, I find that New York is more quiet than, for instance, Copenhagen, when it comes to sirens. I hear sirens much more often in Copenhagen than I do here in New York. I think, but this is my own theory, that they have a “minimum siren policy” - because when they turn it on, they quickly turn it off again - and sometimes this results in a siren “rap”, when they turn it on and off quickly in a row - but, still, in minimizes the use of sirens.
Just a note. Good night.
