Funny you should mention EFPS (or EXCDS as it's known here)

Yes it fell over. I also believe you guys have been getting a version of the "Voice Switch" touch screen comms system we use here as well. it died as well.

:mad: :mad:

DP, welcome to the lovely world of ACCURATE journalism.

You really think that's a photo of a person who works at Winnipeg Centre!?! (He hasn't got enough warm clothes on to start :E)

Justcoolen - this can only be one person. Check your PMs!
