Hi, I notice that access to the chemically contaminated areas in Fort McMurray (post-fire) are being coordinated by Team Rubicon.

The emergency management folks in Fort Mac have good words for them in regards to their professionalism. Not sure what the national vs. international component is on these teams.

Anyway, looks good on paper, but I haven't heard of them before. Anybody here had experience with this organization?

I wouldn't want to cross them, and if I did so, it would be very carefully...

Haha, crossing the Rubicon... I suppose you'd recommend casting the die first?

If you do;
remember the advice from 'Shakespeares' great forgotten rock and roll musical' 'Return to Forbidden Planet'

based on 'Forbidden Planet' which was based on 'The Tempest' and replete with quotes from both.

When the Id Monster attacks someone warns: "Beware the Ids that March!"
