<p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">[quote user="Ulrich"]</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">Blaming the Nantes fire chief doesn't help either. The best thing he could have done right after this happened is to take FULL and complete responsibility for what happened, apologize, and get the wheels rolling on what can be done for the victims and the town.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">[/quote]</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">Yes, even if the fire chief was at fault, Burkhardt would have been better off not saying so at this point. Everybody knows that these big accidents need some time to be investigated. Burkhadt should not be expected to explain the cause the next day.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">But the worse thing is that Burkhardt comes right out of the box blaming it on the fire chief, and it appears that Burkhardt's case is full of holes. And because his blaming of the fire chief is based on a technical issue involving air brakes and running locomotives, those issues will be sorted out by the experts. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">So if Burkhardt is blowing smoke, it is not going to escape the technical expertise of the investigation. And if Burkhardt's excuse is proven to be false, he is going to look very bad for trying to blame the fire chief before the investigation even began. </span></p>
