Trailer Trash
Poor Scotty got his shorts in a knot about all of the nasty media saying that the Shrubbery knowingly lied about the WMD trailers.
Professor Cole takes a facetious swipe at the trailer business by wondering how you could do work in those trailers.
When I first heard about the trailers I automatically knew the story was bogus, but it took a very long time for me to figure why I knew the trailers weren’t being used as labs.
We used trailers for a lot of different things in the military, and trailers, called “portable classrooms”, are common at local schools. I knew there was something wrong with the trailers, but it took a long time for me to figure out that it wasn’t what was there, but what was missing.
Labs are a controlled environment. Labs designed to produce chemical or biological weapons would have an even more controlled environment to prevent contamination. What was missing was air conditioning. With 120° air temperatures and dust storms, you would need some serious air conditioning and air filtration systems. You would need airlock entry and positive interior air pressure to do lab work in the trailers.

Having spent the better part of two days last week working in a trailer without air conditioning, even with the temperature no more than about 85°F outside, I can tell you that the only successful chemical experiment going on in there was the release of mold and mildew into my nose and sinuses. Scientific or weapons development work, in that environment? They’ve got to be kidding.
They put out schematics that must have been based on one of their stellar sources, and it just didn’t make sense. Even school chemistry labs have isolated ventilation to avoid contaminating the entire school.
OT: That’s why FEMA shouldn’t be using trailers, they grow mold faster than any other dwelling because you can’t air them out properly.
I swear I didn’t steal the title of my post from you. GMTA.
Rook had a good one too – meant to post on it…but then again, I can Just read yours!

As I said at your place, Bobby: it’s a Southern thing.
