Joe,
My mother almost dieing from mold was not drama. It was real life. Her doctors had the same views as you about mold, and all they said is “All we can do is make her comfortable”. She is doing a lot better now, mostly because we choose not to listen to those doctors anymore. Doctors can be wrong just like the mold inspector you encountered, but it does not make all doctors and mold inspectors wrong.
James,
I am glad your mother is doing better but for you to continually use your family members as “evidence” of mold’s toxicity has no scientific value. It is one individual’s experience and nothing more.
You simply cannot build credible science on very limited evidence. Period.
Agreed
I have expressed this opinion to you before about what I call “Prolab Wonders”". Mold is too complicated to be taught in one or two days.
My Industrial Hygienist rants and raves about home inspectors blotching jobs. But since I preform so much mold work, he forgets that I started out as a home inspector when I went under his wing.
Everybody needs to understand: Do not treat mold as extra income, treat it as helping clients with their problems. And never stop educating yourself.
But I can show you other cases of my clients getting ill also. It is common sense, science will caught up. The problem is too coincidental. Period.
You need to understand the correlation is not by necessity causation.
If I say that 98% of people with blindness eat carrots, does that mean we should ban the sale of carrots? Isn’t that “common sense” and too coincidental?
What does “too coincidental” mean to you?

James B,
And now we do, in fact, agree.
