Hey,

Yep, we did make some progress last summer. Many people who communicate on

this board contributed countless hours to making that trip to DC happen. Has

much changed since then? Not really, other than the public is a little more

aware. Why? Because there are some power intities that don't want you and your

children treated. It would cost them money to acknolwedge you are sick.

How are they controlling it? Here's how:

" The American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, Adverse

Human Health Effects from Mold in an Indoor Environment, Evidence Based

Statement is:

1. a document of scant scientific foundation;

2.authored by expert defense witnesses;

3.legitimized by the inner circle of an influential medical

association, whose members often times evaluate mold victims

on behalf of insurers and employers;

4.and promoted by

stakeholder industries for the purpose of financial gain at

the expense of the lives of others.

I know all those post I wrote are bit difficult to follow. It's hard to

explain just how perverse this situation is.

This is what you need to understand: The reason your doctor does not know

how to treat you is because if they acknowledge how sick we are, then the

financial losses in our courtrooms will greatly increase. Don't train the

doctors and the victims can't prove they are sick in court.

GlobalTox sued me for saying Kelman " altered his under oath statements " .

Which he did. This is what they really want me to shut up about:

There is an ending paragraph in the press release which I authored that

states, " In 2003, with the involvement of the US Chamber of Commerce and

ex-developer, U.S. Congressman (R-CA), the GlobalTox paper was

disseminated to the real estate, mortgage and building industries'

association. A

version of the Manhattan Institute commissioned piece may also be found as

a

position statement on the website of the United States medical

policy-writing body, the American College of Occupational and Environmental

Medicine " .

If this is not a true statement, then why didn't they sue me for this?

It is this ending paragraph that the principals of GlobalTox would prefer

not be highly publicized.

This, along with the fact that the ACOEM Statement is based on a premise

current scientific evidence does not support; and

the acceptance of the ACOEM Statement was forced through by an improperly

biased and bypassed peer review process.

Obviously, I have no intention of shuting up. Children's lives are being

unnecessarily ruined so others can save precious money.

YOU ARE SO CORRECT!!!! Our children are sick in schools and no one whats to

do anything but ignore the problem. They just stick their sick heads in the

sand and hope it will all go away!! In years to come our future leaders

will have multiple health issues & be unable to work. Then where will we all

be?!!

It is all a huge NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No Sue, it's even more insidious than that. They know we're sick. They

know the manner and materials of construction over the past 20 years or so have

made us sick. They definately are not sticking their heads in the sand and

hoping it will go away. They are working fast and furious to get these

buildings cleaned up before the public fully understands what is making them

sick.

I want to say, there are many fine scientists, engineers and IAQ

professionals working really hard to get the buildings safer. It's just the

medical

powers that be, who are paid advocates for stakeholder industries who are

keeping the doctors uninformed in order to limit financial liability.

I was at the Surgeon General's Workshop on Indoor Air. The whole thing was

about cleaning up the buildings, changing materials and construction

standards, increasing airflow while at the same time downplaying the illnesses

resultant from the current construction standards promotion of rampant mold

growth.

They had hypersensitivity listed in their little hand out book, but no one

addressed it. One doctor from Harvard stood up and said " For God Sakes, these

are our Children! "

It felt like there was a big ole Elephant sitting on that room. Two days,

many presentation. NOT ONCE did I hear the word " fungal " mentioned. It's all

about the MONEY.

I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!! We have to keep fighting and educating as many people

as we possibly can. I don't go a day without telling someone all about

it.Some listen and some think I'm just crazy. They can think I'm crazy all

they

want I ( & thousands of others) am proof of what mold can do!

Hi to all,

I would like to comment on a friend of mine Sharon Kramer. She has

investigated this issue

to help all of us. It is extremely complicated yet simple, it seems to me

this involves Freedom of Speech. Will we be silenced? Sharon needs what ever

support we can give

her in this disgusting display of how " influence " plays such an important

role in all of our lives.

I joined Sharon along with many victims and activists to help bring this

issue to Washington, DC. Many of us put in countless hours to make this happen

and Sharon did an outstanding

job. She is honest, trustworthy and committed.

Sharon has gone above and beyond the call of duty, I appreciate what she is

doing and hope

that she can continue her quest with our help.

Thank you Sharon,

your friend,

Thanks for the info KC.

That all happened before I found this group. I just read ( a tiny

article) that Penna put together a task force to study mold and probably

develop guidelines. I plan on making my phone call in the morning to our

legislator to find out what it's all about. Elie

Re: mold subject in news

I have noticed mold exposed as public health threat more and more in

traditional news sources so the word it getting out. I think it is due to

internet really. This will put pressure on changes on official level but to

help the process along by doing whatever one can is best.

Elie,

Many people went to Washington last year distributing informational

packets to our legislators, met with some media.
