Re: [californiadisasters] Firefighter incident/shocked

That is a language problem: "Shocked" seems like way too little a word for
this firefighter's experience (since it also applies to the little tingle
you get when you touch both prongs of a home appliance). There's just no
word bigger than "shocked" that applies if the person lives.
