Wow, $200 Million for 65 kids. We could put them up at the Hilton for much less.

I produced and directed the feature documentary Black Mold Exposure, and unfortunately, unless we start maintaining out building and homes against water intrusion, the primary cause of mold contamination, then we are going to continue to see more stories like this one. Mold can cause serious and long-term health problems and the maintenance on a building is very inexpensive compared to the pain and suffering that could be caused by neglect.

finally we see it in print: there are CORE COUNTY responsibilities which need to be maintained. These core services are worthy of our tax dollars. Let’s hope people support this, but let’s also cut out the non essentials, like arts programs and other programs that are nice, and important, but not CORE RESPONSIBILITIES of the government.
