will have no problem explaining just why they didn't sponsor serious studies of air quality, why private studies found a great deal of contamination of apartments in the immediate area of the WTC, etc., etc. Easy on the sarcasm fella! I did not say that...so i cannot be right about it. I said the opposite...the bulk of the problem was in close proximity to the WTC. Most of the rest was within the narrow fallout zone over Brooklyn. Did you at least take a look at the photos?...They tell a compelling story. And keep in mind nearly all of the fallout except from the residual fires was over in less than a day. Hillary and Bill never complained about air quality in their part of town before now because it never got contaminated there. I have no doubt now that Hillary will figure out a way to show the wind was blowing 360 degrees in NYC. This is two years later...everyone has forgotten the priorities on and immediately after 9/11. Search and rescue was the order of the day for local agencies. Prevention of the next attack was paramount for the Feds. Identifying the perps had every law enforcement agency fully engaged. Testing dirty air that was rapidly dissipating in the wind may not have been a real high priority. On a real good day, NYC air is filthy, smelly, smoky and full of contaminants.
