Re: Independent study finds acceptable air at elementary school

July 10, 2008

First flaw I see - " DRY the wet carpet. " I don't think so! Even the

EPA says it has to be REMOVED out after 48 hours.

Second, kids don't have " spontaneous " nose bleeds for nothing.

Or chronic headaches and nausea.

Third - a 31 year old " portable? " - " Portables " are made for

" temporary " use. But the newer ones might have that nasty formaldehyde

laden, cheap particle board and might be worse.

" Independent? " report. Paid for by the school system? Where is the

other testing done by a group chosen by the Teachers Union or Parents?

Why isn't the newspaper asking for the " second " opinion?

If there are kids that are sick, they need to keep " digging " to find

out the cause.

The potential " Defendant " - That says to " DRY " the carpet? Right.

60% humidity and 75 degrees seem on the " high end " to me. The kids

must be falling asleep. Whole classes of kids don't feign illness.

Must be " malingering " children. (Pardon my sarcasm.)

And the dog ate the homework!
