RemDude, I read mold litigation summaries all the time. There is no doubt alot of scammers in
the remediation field. But, I have seen no cases of criminal activity by people
putting wet towels, etc. to fabricate a mold claim. Perhaps you can enlighten us with

scientific info over the mold issue, is pretty funny. Some day, I will let you in on
the inside joke...."My Dear". On 3/03/10, Rem Dude wrote:
