    Kat, I used to teach classes in the “response to hazardous materials incidents” to firefighters. I used this song at the beginning and end of each session. 😉

      Mark,
      I checked the lyrics trying to find the connection to “response to hazardous materials incidents.” I found nothing so I guessed maybe it is the title. Yes? No?

    Y’gotta know when to hold ’em
    Know when t’ fold ’em
    Know when to walk away, and
    KNOW WHEN TO RUN!

    And:
    “Th’ best that you can hope for,
    Is t’die in your sleep.”

    Great song, and nicely played by Mr. Rogers. Always made my students think just as much as the disaster videos they saw. 🙂
