We're in a pretty quiet area, but there sure have been a lot of sirens this morning. As far as I can tell, there's nothing major going on to cause this, so it may just be several small things, which makes it odder. Oh well, if I had a siren, I'd use it all the time for fun, which explains why people like me aren't allowed to have them.
