I find it interesting that after just a few days, those that had been asked to work on the spill (before it even became public) refused to return to the site..... (according to the local press).

Just as an fyi - anyone can get a sample and ask their local pharmacist to analyse it.

Not as serious as kids having cancer, but I myself suffer unpleasant side effects from the lawn pesticides used in Aurora.

Unfortunately my neighbours both sides and in front all use them, which means I cannot open any windows in the house. After just a few minutes I get flu symptoms (sneezing, runny eyes, aching limbs, blocked head and nasal passages) which continues for 36 hours each time.

If it does that to me at, I consider a healthy 42, what is it doing to kids and the elderly?

Aurora Town has implemented a policy of non-pesticide use on their properties - I applaud that. But when will they implement a user ban? I'm going to see if our mayor can answer this for us.
