First of all i want to thank everybody. Anybody wearing orange gets a special treat in my eyes today. Anyway were still celebrating and i never knew that wearing orange and the giants and sports will be so closely connected to what we do in Emergency Management but it is and it is for good reason because our citys success is really dependent upon inviting thousands more people here to enjoy our resources here in the city, to tax us a little bit on it, but this is what we do as a Great International city.

Encouraged all of the Public Safety departments to work well ahead of this, and i want to thank them for constantly keeping me and many of you on the sf Alert Program and texting us and making sure we were assured that the critical departments were working together just in case and its always about just in case.
