The diatribe presented by Nadine Post in "Skyscrapers Supporters Infuriated by Fire Fearmongers" (ENR 6/7 p. 48) was bolstered by Richard Schulte, a fire protection engineer, and the editorial page of ENR, which lamented "the nation should not fall prey to hysterics, hyperbole and hot air."
My background is 33 years in fire research, education and investigation. I am proud to say I am an advisor to the Skyscraper Safety Campaign.
