15/ Before beginning today's "episode," we make note of several realities.
"How many?" someone asked, "How many babies were killed by the #pesticides."
Is that even the right question?
How many murders does it take to reach some macabre threshold? But ...

16/ To put this in perspective, one student reported that during Homecoming she realized that virtually every married women in her dorm had two or more pregnancies end in miscarriage, often late term.
Is that enough to prompt the #SBUniv governance to investigate?

17/ Apparently not.
Because, in the #SBUniv view, this is *only* women's pain and women's losses.
But, every one of these children had fathers and grandparents and often siblings.
This is long-term, family pain, generational pain, Bearcat pain.

18/ We ask: How much suffering must there be to earn the concern of #SBUniv officials on these and other matters.
How many years, how much anguish?
When is it ever, ever enough!
Open your ears and stone-cold hearts.
Be the Christ-centered community you claim to be.

19/ Continue testimony ...
These pesticides were "grossly misapplied," as an expert witness confirmed:
First, no pesticide should be applied with people present.
SBU's Physical Plant Manager testified to full baseboard applications as people were in the gameroom and hallways!

20/ For over 20 years, students and their environments were doused monthly.
Applicators were trained by the Manager to spray:
*kitchen cupboards without removing dishes or cutlery;
*closets without removing clothing;
*rooms without removing bedding, toiletries, toothbrushes.

21/ This usage violates Federal law.
The #Diazinon label warns the applicator in the "hazards to humans" section:
*Diazinon can be fatal if swallowed;
*may be absorbed through the skin;
*do not breathe spray mist;
*do not get in eyes or on skin;
*do not get on clothing.

22/ Secondly, a technician should not apply #pesticides continuously, without determining if insects were present.
#Pesticides are applied:
*discreetly;
*out of harms way;
*in crack and crevice applications only, where insects hide - NOT all over the room and the baseboards.

23/ Thirdly, the applicator obviously had his pressure too high which atomized the chemical, leaving #pesticide residue everywhere ... even on and *in* people.
Tomorrow, we introduce the SBU personnel and policies that permitted these practices.
Be prepared; it's infuriating.
