Harpers index can be scary, here are a couple items from February:
- Percentage of children who by age seven have had at least one imaginary friend: 65
- Percentage of these friends who are animals: 41
- Estimated number of Florida homeowners who signed contracts last year forbidding them to complain about their homes: 4,000
- Minimum damages sought by a builder last fall against a homeowner who had broken the rule: $15,000
My conclusion: people in Florida still have imaginary friends who give them bad advice regarding home contractors.
