Respectfully it might as well be zero.

2% of anything is just that 2% and inn this case it is a statement of the

level of respect some have for EMS.

If EMS is ever going to get any level of respect in terms of things like

this it must have a voice, TAA and MESAT do try and frankly TAA does a batter

job mainly since they have a larger membership since EMSAT has always been

a struggling organization and we are STILL struggling and will continue to

do so unless and until EMS Providers from the Street level to the upper

echelons can come together in some unified fashion. I am not sure if that

will happen in my lifetime but I am trying as are others.

2% is a pathetic statement when you condenser the whole pie.
