GOVERNOR OF SOUTH CAROLINA

(note that the capitalizing of " preventing mold " was

added by

me...Don L. Fortner)

I think that this is a step in the right direction to

acknowledge the

mold issue. I would urge everyone reading this

proclamation to let

Governor Sanfornd know that you appreciate this order,

and notify

your own Governor and other state officals of the

toxic mold issue

and it's dangers to human health.

You can contact Governor Sanford and

There is a prompt to allow you to send the Governor an

e-mail. You

might want to mention my site here. He may not be

aware of it,

although I have contacted his office regarding my

toxic mold exposure

in the workplace. You can e-mail him by clicking on

his picture at the top

of the page. He is aware of the toxic mold issues that

we all face.
