Others are not so sure. In a study published in 1999, Mayo Clinic researchers concluded that mold causes most chronic sinus infections. Even more alarming, several researchers believe that molds can cause some types of brain damage. Wayne Gordon, a neuropsychologist, and Dr. Eckardt Johanning, both of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, have seen enough patients whose problems with memory, learning and concentration occurred only after exposure to stachybotrys to convince them there is a relationship. Still, they concede, more research is needed...
Where Was Shawn Eckardt...

The plotters' schemes would seem almost ludicrous if it weren't for their viciousness.

The hitman, Shane Stant, roamed Cape Cod in a vain attempt to find his quarry. She wasn't there, though Gillooly claims that Harding herself made phone...

Hoevet charged Harding with obtaining both the name of the Tony Kent Arena and Kerrigan's hotel-room number in Detroit and of participating in a Jan. 10 meeting between Gillooly and Eckardt at which an alibi was concocted. He said he had "no doubt" about Harding's guilt and suggested that it would be "unconscionable" for Harding to skate at the Olympics. The next day the state bar was flooded with calls questioning whether Hoevet had violated Oregon's code of professional conduct...
