Looks like a Monty Python skit!

That 18.5 minute recording isn't 'missing'. It's archived with many other documents in the basement of the Alamo. You can go there and listen for yourself if you know the secret codes!🤓

You put more effort into their education than did the public education system!

We deploy several 'Damp Rid' bags around the basement and dump them almost weekly. Surprising how much water accumulates. Not sure that they are more effective than a dehumidifier, but they work 24/7.

I think people in Louisiana don't fear Vampires and Voodoo, since both are so common. ;)
