Steps Taken to Reduce Mistakes on 911 Fire Calls

Anyone interested in starting a neighborhood specific reading series?
Hey! I'm a writer/stand up comic, I live near Lincoln Road & Flatbush and would to put together a reading series in our neighborhood. I am thinking something super low key, once a month.
