Saw in the news the other day that some Roman Catholic Bishops are urging priests not to give Senator Kerry communion in light of his position on abortion. This would be the same Catholic church that recently disclosed it will be selling the Boston archibishop's mansion and 43 adjoining acres for nearly $100 million dollars to to raise cash to fund a $90 million dollar settlement with more than 550 victims of sexual abuse. Glad to see those bishops are claiming the moral high ground.

Talked to another mold client today. Hired a HVAC company to routinely check his furnace and air conditioning units. It appears the HVAC company failed to notice a malfunctioning hose despite four separate visits to the house. As a result of the malfunctioning hose, water ran constantly to the furnace and was blown through the house. Moisture got into the attic and his attic now appears to be filled with toxic mold. He has had the house looked at and has been advised that the entire roof may have to come off to alleviate the mold. To make matters worse a family member may now have mold-induced asthma. We are awaiting test results and should have them back within a week.
