You know it's pretty bad when you think you're dying, and you don't have a problem with that. ;)
Glad you got better.

Dengue is endemic to Mexico, Central and Latin America. Last case of Dengue in Florida was in 1934.

Don't worry. Obama's got it covered. You see, the boy-genius is going to keep fiddling until the gulf oil slick hits the tidal areas around the Keys, killing all mosquitos in their breeding areas. You see? Pure Wile E. Coyote genius!

We used to run an dplay in the DDT spray on the Animas River, Farmington NM back in 1956!
All of us kids are still alive and kicking! Well, I did loose my hair after 40 years! Maybe that was the cause!;-)
To: Ruy Dias de Bivar
Remember camping as a kid in eastern Canada back in that time frame (1956-58) and having aircraft spraying DDT on forests to control the spruce worm. All these years later no hair ... ya think?

Sorry guys, I’m 61 and still have all my hair. Just as gray as can be. So, it can’t be the fog trucks.

Just put some Avon Skin SO Soft on, they won’t touch you. Besides it’s the dry season, not many mosquitoes this time of year in Florida unless the winds are from the west or north which drives them in from the glades.

I saw a research prof telling of African huts treated with DDT by just wiping the interior walls down in a recent study. 2 years later no misquotes will go inside. That is a miracle pesticide capable of saving millions of lives a year.
What do the progressive liberals want? Less people....hmmmmmm.
The ban will continue as long as they are in power and many will die, mostly black African impoverished children.

WRONG!!
I’ve lived here in Bay County, Florida, for 13 years and we never had mosquitos until now. We can’t even go outside and my dogs scratch all the time. They don’t wait til late afternoon either....they are out all day. And, it is time for yellow flies too!
We had a very wet Spring and still have lots of water in low areas. A hair spray can puts out as much as the bug spray truck.

It’s either Bush’s fault...or the oil spill. Never mind that
neither were around when it began....

NO, not WRONG at all. You live in the panhandle, he was talking about visiting Key West or the South Florida area. Bay County vs. Dade and Monroe is worlds apart. South Florida is nothing like north Florida and if you live in FL you should know that. You don’t get the SE tradewinds up there. They blow in over the ocean and Gulf Stream most of the spring and summer and much of the winter. No skeeters over the open ocean. It probably blows them all over your way. :)
