I really stopped reading when they reported a family that had six-inch deep dust accumulating near openings in their house, dust so thick they had to wear dust masks inside their house, and dust so bad they could not see each other across the living room. This was a middle-class family, and I really doubt they would stay in such a house. Sorry, New Yorker Magazine, I’m not buying it till I see collaborating evidence.[/quote]
My dad lived in the Central Valley for a number of years. Pretty much everyone who lives there has long known about Valley Fever.
