I wish I could say that it was a quiet week in news but it was far from that with too many accidents. Be careful out there as temperatures rise which can lead to some significant fatigue and dehydration if you’re in the field. Remember that heat can serious effect any elevator system especially with roof top machine rooms that are not climate controlled. To balance the accidents the EESF has launched the new children’s Safe T Riders interactive website as a major tool in reaching kids and parents. I’ll have more talk about this on an upcoming show. There will be no show next week as I’ll be on vacation with my family. If you haven’t planned yours yet do so as soon as you can.
