I agree with much of what this article has to say. I dont envision salt use going away anytime soon but in the short term we can at least calibrate the equipment better. More efficient use and training should be a priority but liability shields will have to be put in place to protect both contractors and businesses from lawsuits. Sad to see that it looks like Evers sold us out to the trial lawyers again, what a hypocrite.
