Guest guest Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 Amazing. My stepfather was showing some business associates the wonders of Lake Tahoe, and asked me to come along to show these guys around. One of the walks we did was down to the waters edge, past Sand Harbor to the place where Mark Twain and his camping buddies lost control of a fire in the 1860's, and rather than continue the futile effort of fighting it - just went back to Virginia city as described in his book " Roughing It " and let the dang thing burn itself out. They never went back to see how far it burned. As we walked past the nude beach, (don't worry, I averted my eyes, at least from the ugly ones) one of these visitors described that he and his entire family were having to live in a hotel, because of... He considered it incredibly fortuitous to have crossed paths with someone who knows exactly what he was talking about - and we had quite the discussion as we walked along. Only five years ago, I could scarcely find anyone who even believed me, and now I'm tripping over " moldies " left and right. It's like watching the world change right before my eyes. - Quote

Schopenhauer was right! " Stages of Truth " : " Mold illness is ridiculous, stupid " " Mold illness is IMPOSSIBLE, stupid " " Mold illness? Why everyone knows about THAT! What are you? stupid?
