What's It Like Directing Fireworks Traffic?

CSI Seattle has the lowdown. He may spend most of his days playing a real-life version of Gil Grissom,* but one day a year he has to skip the lab tests and explain to people why this road is closed. What makes it all worthwhile? "Double time. Cha-ching!" (*We're sure he's sick of the comparison. Sorry. But it seemed nicer than comparing him to Horatio Caine.)
