Not sure if its a Structure or Bush, but just now Wangara called 6-6 2nd alarm only a few min from there station I believe. I missed the address and can't listen indoors. Duncraig also turning out.

Anybody listen where it is?
"VKI, NJ050 will you be attending the job?"
"Negative VKI, my desk is bolted to the floor".
