Tom, how much of the lake and the surrounding countryside do you think the groundskeeper should spray?

An astronomical observatory that exposes people to Wesr Nile virus is a danger, regardless of vested interests in not discussing it. Tom, what do you say to the child whose parents shrugs off the warning and then comes down with the disease? “Gee, tough luck, kid, you should picked better parents”? SLAS would be highly irresponsible to even consider exposing members of the public to the danger.

However, I wonder if we couldn’t post a sign saying “West Nile Virus detected-please use repellent,” at the entrance to SPOC? Also, is it possible to have the grounds keeper use a spray a couple hours ahead before the public begins arriving? Just a thought. sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Send messages to the list to Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com The Utah-Astronomy mailing list is not affiliated with any astronomy club.
