QuanTem Labs President Apologized For Repeating LA Weekly Fraudulent Attack

[Guest guest]

Mr. Barnett issued an apology in his newsletter this month for their

repeating in last month's issue of that horrid false light attack on my family

by Heimpel and Jill of LA Weekly (2008). Their fraudulent

writing was very hurtful to my husband and children. Even though I seldom

write of my own family's mold experience, Heimpel and had referred to

my daughter with Cystic Fibrosis as my " starring victim " as I have spoken

out to expose the deceit of ACOEM, the US Chamber of Commerce et al.

My daughter lives in LA and returned from lunch after just starting her

first job out of college to see her co-workers reading the horrid writing of

the dynamic duo, calling her a " starring victim " .

It is amazing how low some people will stoop to keep the deceit going that

mold in water damaged buildings does not harm. They could care less who

gets hurt in the process. In my book, Heimpel and are at the very

bottom on the barrel among yellow journalists.

I am very appreciative to Mr. Barnett and QuanTem Labs for their apology.

And I am very impressed. It takes a big man to say " I was wrong " in his

own monthly newsletter. Too bad Heimpel and don't have the same

moral character Mr. Barnett does.

This is what Mr. Barnett wrote:

Message from Barnett, President

I APOLOGIZE:

Sending out the QuanTEM Chronicles for the past five years has been a joy.

Through this news letter we have met many of you whom we might not have

otherwise. Your comments have always been constructive and in almost every

case, positive. Occasionally we have some fun with it; but, the main

purpose is to highlight information which directly affects our industry. It's

not our intent to sell you on an idea as much as to provide items and

articles which can be of value and, in many cases, thought provoking.

Last month we included a link to an article in the LA Daily newspaper

entitled " The Toxic Mold Rush " . This article didn't shine a very flattering

light on Mrs. Sharon Kramer and she was kind enough to bring this to our

attention. Mrs Kramer wasn't happy about seeing this article resurrected.

For this I apologize to Mrs. Kramer and to our readers. It is not our

intent to link to or promote articles which engage in personal attacks. No

person or group gain from this type of publication. Please know, this won't

happen again.

For every topic there many opposing view points and rest assured we will

dig out as many of these as we can. The exchange of diverse opinions and

views is what makes this country great and it's what keeps our industry

growing. Now, can you be of help? Yes you can, if you see an article or have

penned one which is beneficial to our industry, please let us know. We

would like to consider linking to your offering.

Thank you for your continuing support of QuanTEM.

E. Barnett

I am glad that this apology was issued. It is important to feel vindicated when

your " good name " and " reputation " are dragged throught the mud. It is tough

when our children have to bear the brunt of their parent's activism, which takes

courage, and tenacity to " stand at the edge of the cliff " for another (or many

other) " voiceless " people.

Personal attacks eventually sink the people who write them. Sometimes it takes

a long time for the truth to prevail. Bravo.
