Seems to be another case where a ghetto renter and a ghetto landlord collide.

Sorry for the rude response. I hope in the future, those who don't want to answerr questions will refrain from their initial impulse to lash out with rudeness and just move on. Let someone else answer it. If no one does, oh well. Mr Reno answers questions for landlords who are LPA members on his "Ask the Attorney" page. This is the Landlord Q&A Forum where landlords go for advice. Sometimes a tenant comes on for advice, but most landlords are going through their own tenant issues and may not be in the state of mind to advise tenants on how to deal with their issues. Some do and some are very patient. You'd probably want to talk with a local tenant attorney about the situation.

I was just kidding! I wanted to see who would respond to a tenant writing on a landlord site!
