    RemDud,

    Do you even read what you are responding to before you write?

    RD Quote:
    The NAA’s position on mold is consistent with current research and
    facts regarding mold exposure and does not embrace the junk
    science associated with the black toxic mold hysteria. With
    frivolous litigation a real danger for multifamily operators, it
    is reassuring that the Chamber of Commerce document and many
    others are finding their way into the courts.

    "The NAA’s position on mold is consistent with current research and
    facts regarding mold exposure and does not embrace the junk science
    associated with the black toxic mold hysteria."

    NAA May 21, 2010

    "THE MOLD THAT WE DEAL WITH IN OUR INDUSTRY CAN POSE POTENTIALLY
    HARMFUL EFFECTS TO RESIDENTS, EMPLOYEES....REMEMBER, MOLD CAN CAUSE
    MAJOR HEALTH PROBLEMS AND EVEN DEATH"

    US Chamber July 17, 2003

    "THUS THE NOTION THAT TOXIC MOLD IS AN INSIDIOUS SECRET KILLER AS SO
    MANY TRIAL LAWYERS AND MEDIA WOULD CLAIM IS JUNK SCIENCE UNSUPPORTED
    BY ACTUAL SCIENTIFIC STUDY"

    NAA August 31, 2009

    "A PANEL OF SCIENTISTS (who won't even claim they wrote the following
    paper we are citing for the courts on their CV's)..FIND THAT YEARS OF
    INTENSE STUDY HAVE FAILED TO PRODUCE ANY CAUSAL CONNECTION BETWEEN
    EXPOSURE TO INDOOR MOLD AND ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS' US CHAMBER OF
    COMMERCE, A SCIENTIFIC VIEW OF THE HEALTH EFFECTS OF MOLD (2003)"

    RemDud May 22, 2010

    "YEA THE NAA IS RIGHT WHEN THEY PUT IT INTO LEGAL DOCUMENTS FOR
    JUDGE'S EYES THAT MOLD DOESN'T HARM TENANTS WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY and
    PUBLICLY TELLING THEIR MEMBERS IT CAN KILL THEIR TENANTS. DOH!"

    It really is scary that you could be considered a professional
    advisor in this issue.
