Do you have asthma? Do you know someone who does? Do you ever wonder what caused it?
A pile of fiberglass laying on the ground. It's everywhere.
The last time I went to see a movie the air in the theater was so bad I felt sick for three days after. I should have left the minute I walked in, however the movie was Star Wars and my husband was way too excited to just leave. The theater had been renovated a couple of years prior, however people rarely think to replace the air system. The ductwork was fiberglass lined and it was blowing into the air.
