just about every day we hear some reporter tell us that some agency |
|
is taking water samples and in several days we will hear the report.
the only report I'm hearing is ecoli and hepatitis.
couldn't one of us take some samples and have an independent lab do the testing?
who trusts the EPA to tell the truth?

2. Also, not to blather, but |

That reminds me of what little we have heard, which was that the water was so polluted that it went off their scales. I forget the name and the agency, if it was EPA or not, it was on tv a few days ago. He said they could only say it was "over ten times the limit for sewage", because their meters were literally pegged. So we'll probably never have a good measure for how toxic the water became, not that I know enough to say that it matters, what parts per million over what is healthy. Just the magnitude I guess.
I hope you get somewhere with suggesting independent testing. I wonder if other labs from other nations would be interested...in knowing what we unleashed into water which will surely not stay in the United States. Perhaps they'd want to know too.
I wonder if this could possibly be a breach of security for our admin, their security being the cya of their incompetence and lies?? Think they would ban the practice I suggest?? I have my own theories.

3. Mexico and Cuba could test their waters to see if the toxins have |

arrived there. and Key West sticks right out there in the Gulf, with the gulf stream flowing by. we should test for toxins too.
