On another note, asbestos containing drywall has been a problem in south Texas, coming in from Mexico. One south Texas University was found to be installing asbestos drywall in new buildings. Local contractors in Corpus Christi were buying the stuff in Laredo for a dollar a sheet. The Minister of Mines in Mexico (believe that is the title) recently denied that asbestos is mined in Mexico, according to a friend of mine who told me of his conversation with the guy.

“...asbestos containing drywall...”

Any idea where I can get some? Once you’re done cutting it, asbestos is a great insulator and fire retardant. I wouldn’t mind having it (sealed up) in my drywall.
