Georgia has the "black belt" (= Blue belt) too! [link] I was wondering what was up with all those blue rural counties, and now I know.

Because books.
And if we aged backwards, we'd have to do things like find someone to take care of us for when we hit the infancy stage. That would suck.
That's sort of true anyway, though, at least sometimes.

I'm beginning to suspect that this low-level cold I've had for the past couple of weeks is not a cold, but it's from mold in my apartment after it flooded in August. Crap. I have no idea what to do about this.

Tom, I had a minor freakout about mold a few months ago. Can you see the mold or do you know where it might be? I think you can get it tested but it looked fairly expensive. Maybe since you have an apartment, though, your landlord would have to foot the bill?

My apartment is a co-op. I'm responsible for any expenses.

Tom, here's a resource site for mold in your home (how to determine if you have it, how to clean it up)

That is not so easy, then. Do you feel better during the day? I noticed that I was getting my symptoms in the morning (after sleeping with the AC all night) and on the weekends. In our case, there are almost no ducts or vents in our house. The only exception was the air conditioner and we got a new one. And we took down all the drapes (because they can have dust mites) and got an exterminator (because according to the doctor, cockroaches are a big source of allergies in the home and we definitely have those here).
I know none of that really addresses the toxic mold stuff, but I had trouble finding solid info. Much of what I looked at was very fishy looking (as in, not legit but taking advantage of peoples' fears).

Sorry about that change.gov link.
I'm not going to bother changing it since it's still nonexistent.
Am enjoying the Obama puppy news.
Also, more Sarah Palin news. . . on Fox.
