If I was offered a job paying $3,000/day which required residing in Bkk, I'd turn it down.


I have lived in BKK for several years and have no problems...sensitive much?



yes, I am sensitive - physically and in other ways. Physically, I feel adverse affects from pollution and loud sounds. I have often thought that, if the human species were to split again, as it did between Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens, the split would have to do with those who've adapted to big cities and those who didn't. Those who did, would have to have specialized lungs for surviving on foul air - not unlike the Ginko tree which, because it survived through volcanic epochs, has toughened up to bad air, and is widely planted in inner cities.

I'm also sensitive to pollen, dust, MSG, and sprayed chemicals in foods - which is an endemic problem with nearly all foods in Thailand. Even items marked 'organic' are often not. Similarly, many restaurants which claim to not use MSG actually do, whether wittingly or not (all their dozens of bottles by the stove have MSG).

I'll be the 1st to admit that being sensitive to chemicals and loud noises is a stone drag, especially for someone who chooses to reside in Thailand, where environmental considerations are nearly nil. However, I trudge though and try to make the best of it, tissues and all. Not surprisingly, I reside in the countryside, which is comparatively better - but there's sure a lot of pollen.

You should live in a bubble sir, perhaps we could split between bubble people, and people. biggrin.gif? no? biggrin.gif

What was the result of the Carradine investigation? Any ideas what he was doing,
why he was wearing what he was wearing, was there another person in the room,
etc, etc....

I admire your doggedness, but you may as well start a thread (and why not) titled "Updates on Thai Police investigations".

I guarantee the thread will be one of TV's shortest ever.
