Re: MCS brought on by toxid mold

Hello Waldo:
I'm not sure how you are posting, but it is really hard to read. Look
at how it turned out.
Well, I can be pretty sarcastic, and I like to use it on people that
deserve it. This would be people who say things that are overtly
stupid, make bold statements without basis, and basically use the
argument of 'well you can't tell me any different, because I know'.
On the other hand, look around a little more closely before you wack
me too hard. And you know what, I'm willing to bet that you understand
that 'toxic mold' is not a term of science, and that mcs is, so poorly
defined as to be any thing and everything anyone wants it to be. Maybe
this will change some day, maybe not. Time will tell.
In the mean time, people would have more success if they didn't act so
irrational. It works against them. It makes it likely that they will
not be successful with there cases.
Please keep in mind my dear friend Waldo, that this is the ToxLaw
forum. We discuss litigation, not how to make friends. People should
understand that this is a tough business. You can't sue someone
without expecting them to defend themselves with all of the tools
available.
Best Regards,
Mary

contributing to the well being of this forum. You have a shrewdness
and mean spiritedness about your posting. I think that you may be a
shill to discourage posting. AND You could include your email addy if
you dare to. as you would say "Best Regards"
