Useless Gadgets: "Mold Alert"
Turns out the "Mold Alert" detector simply measures the relatively humidity and temperature to determine if your home could grow mold. For a hundred bucks, I'll tell you if you've got a mold problem: Do you live in a swamp, a bear den, or New Orleans? Then you've got a mold problem. Cash only, please.
(My sister's townhouse actually had a huge mold infestation in Kansas City, so I'm familiar with the dangers and perniciousness of mold, which makes this gadget all the more insultingly bad.)
Oh Gizmo's first mistake was buying something from the Sky Mall catalog, but since they're reporting their findings I guess we can just chalk it up to science.
