BBC does great story on formaldehyde!

The British Broadcasting Corp. (BBC) radio has done a very long and excellent piece on the formaldehyde in FEMA trailers issue. Reporter Robert Walker interviewed most of the key players in this campaign to get the government to acknowledge the problem with formaldehyde in the temporary housing units. Good interviews with Paul Stewart, who was the first to blow the whistle on formaldehyde; FEMA whistleblower Jesse Fineran; Lindsay Huckabee, who saw her five children suffer from the effects of the formaldehyde; Dr. Lou Finkle, talking about the challenges to rebuilding; James Crowell with Biloxi NAACP, discussing how many people still have no alternative place to live because rents have doubled on the Coast; and Rep. Bennie Thompson, speaking about how this issues shows how the government does not value the working poor and minority populations most affected by the disaster.
