Unnecessary ambulance calls

Washington Post: "The ambulances come screaming down city streets, rushing on calls to burst boils, clip hangnails and check on smelly body parts. At the cost of $700 a visit . . .

. . . Thirty people accounted for 2,400 emergency transports last year."

Those were the days...
