Hi Rich,
Name here is Blake and I live in Windsor, MA. A bit farther towards New York than yourself, but I go to college at WNEC in Springfield.
I took my EMT course over the summer, did the practical exam about a month ago and took the written last week.
From your screen name and myspace, I see that you are into a lot of outdoor activities. I got my Eagle Scout in 02 and I am still active in Boy Scouts so I still do a lot of hiking and camping on the weekends.
Hope your class is going well and welcome to emtlife.
