You're right that Dr. Pollack made a lot of good suggestions. I would love to see the full transcript -- well done for finding one. Andrew Eiler's stance was one I found especially problematic and troubling. Anyone who suggested poor people needed to be able to save $60 by buying a refurbished mattress instead of a new one had no idea of the financial and emotional devastation bed bugs could bring. Nice work, Renee!
