Goodtimesintv's comment is extremely important and bears repeating.
I hope from seeing these reports, that residents too cheap to contribute a few bucks a year--to their neighborhood, volunteer AED equipment, responder training and dispatch costs--wake up and see that the fire department amubulances could be out on other calls already. This is why the dozens of effective neighborhood AED groups have been formed, and why the survival rate here in TV is much higher than anywhere else!
