[AZLady]

Wow!  De Vries will expose all the details.  I'm so glad he's doing another show.  June 3 is Saturday.  How will we get translations and details?

[Rob]

Igsigs.. any idea if this is a two year type show or one with new info?

The Boeti and Taco Show, formerly known as FoxNews!

Is it just me or is anyone thinking that this guy from the CDC infected his future son-in-law?

Well, it sure is strange that the guy worked in TB research and this young guy comes down with a rare form of the stuff.  Hmmmmmmm

   

I bet they will try to track to see where he came down with this strain - don't you?  I mean, you would think they may be able to trace back - then again, someone said it lies dormant for a while??  

Yes,  things that make you go hmmmmm.

The patient has been transferred to the Denver hospital that specializes in respiratory illnesses.

Yes, he is in for a long course of treatment but this was far from regular TB being drug resistant.

Something very strange about it all.  I am sure this will be investigated completely as well it should be.

Tyler,my son is a professor ,also.Easy,you have a reason to wonder.my mother was a teacher,and I was at one time.Do you still see the black helicopters at night.

[casa]

See, I was so upset I even made a mess quoting!  Sorry!  haha

Casa, I am not referring to you and/or Lala's.  I do also have children in the education field who are great teachers, and see the way education is going.  You know, I too, have an education degree, but have not taught in years and would not go back, because teachers are paid by degrees and double A's, etc., and some of these teachers got their degrees from colleges that would not compare with a high school that we attended back in the day.  I personally attended a master's program in such a school.  When we were being described what a thesis would entail, one of the candidates said he/she had never written a paper in their whole college career or high school and did not know where to begin. That teacher got a master's and is receiving as much pay as my child who had to do papers from junior high all the way through his master's program and beyond.  If you have not experienced such teachers, you are very

I do know what you mean Tylergal! Unfortunately, there are many unqualified teachers in our schools.  Then there are some who are highly qualified but can not relate to the age group they are teaching.  My middle daughter is attending a university that has a GREAT nursing program but the other programs are not so good.  She had to transfer there to get her 4 year degree because the school she was at only had a 2 year nursing degree.  She had to take a humanities along with her nursing classes so she took an English class.  She and one other student were the only ones who even knew what MLA style was or how to write an essay correctly.  It was amazing!

Anna,that was a tacky comment about Ole Paris.

this things stinks to high heaven

It was posted at RU the DeVries show was taped 2 weeks ago..so it has to be new news.

[igsigs]

Igsigs.. any idea if this is a two year type show or one with new info?

Says DeVries will talk about book and *shocking new details* ...so at least some of it will be new. IMO

[Kimmy53]

This is described as a RARE and dangerous strain of TB.  Where would the kid pick it up?  Certainly not in his law office or on the streets.  This is very suspicious.

Yes, and add to that his FIL is employed by the CDC and works with TB??????  

OF COURSE they will say there is no way the FIL spread it...What would one expect them to admit....  It is truly FISHY.

Kimmy, we are a group of very smart people... very little gets by us. This is a scenario that needs to be examined FIRST... it is the most likely cause of the infection.

If I worked at Jiffy Lube and there was grease and oil all over the carpet in the family room.. who would be the most likely person to have committed the act?

Yep - I just have always had a problem with people believing whatever they are told just because of who it came from... But the majority of the population will just accept what they are being fed - as usual

SBS 6 (broadcaster in the Netherlands) just announced that on sunday june 3 the Peter R de Vries show will be about the NH case. Peter will report from Aruba about the case and the book Joran wrote. The show starts as usual at 20.30 lokal time. The complete show will be dedicated to the NH case.

Maybe interesting, for sure entertaining.

I think that he could have caught on aruba.wasn't there an attorney,who used to post on the dark side.

That teacher got a master's and is receiving as much pay as my child who had to do papers from junior high all the way through his master's program and beyond.  If you have not experienced such teachers, you are very fortunate, and are obviously in a top-tier school system.

What is disheartening for me is that our school district, 15 years ago was top-notch.  Now, being right off I-35 coming from Mexico, we have an incredible number of immigrants who seem to just stop in and stay a while in our town.  As the population has changed, so have the school dynamics . . . we are catering to a new socio-economic group and culture . . . our district has declined for various reasons, but many will/would say it is the above reason, primarily.  Of course, it can't be said aloud for fear of retribution.  It is all about this *sub-group*, as that is the new definition.  I apologize in advance for offending anyone.

In our area, too, it is a "protected class," the reason my DIL who had to take insult after insult from male students who were twice her size and many of whom did try to waylay her on her way to her car after school were not held to account by administration because they bring extra funding to the school system.  It's all about "bottom line."  My DIL who has a double-A and a master's had to quit and will be getting her doctorate in education so that she can teach at university or private school level to a higher level of students, out of fear of rape and the constant insults from male students who clearly stated inside the classroom and aloud, "I would like to F---- you."   When there was nothing done by administration except telling her they were just idle threats, and to ignore it, she could no longer be insulted and decided to leave their "protected" system.

I am SO sorry that happened to your child!  I don't know where she was teaching but it would not be tolerated where I teach!  Our school is not perfect but that situation would be handled!!!!

so it's on June 3rd.. that's Sunday.. and we should have some of the info by 5 pm.. as that would be 10 pm Holland time.

Thank You Again Igsigs.
