Hopefully it is resolving properly by now... if it isn't going where
it's supposed to, they probably do need to know, though... it's not much
fun for everything to come back out the in door... But I understand the
wanting to get out of there.. :)

Probably very little.  More gear will be sold, as prevention, and plenty
of DEET etc...  Mosquitoes are similarly more commonly suspect... but
even in the days of spraying the neighborhoods for their "irradication"
it didn't really affect people going where the skeeters might be a major
hazard...

Thought so, but wanted to make sure... ;)   Perhaps someone that likes
white meat chicken might not agree with us, but that's their problem. ;)
