cyber knife - cure for cancer?

Has anyone out there heard of the cyber knife ads a cure for cancer or has anyone had an experience with it for themself or for a loved one? My husband is about to meet with a radiology group to discuss this..as you know sometimes we don't get all the information we need to make a decision as to whether this is for us or not..my husband has been having chemo that has apparently stopped working and this is another choice for us or maybe a clinical study. Anyone have any advice etc. Lucille Noble (lnoble@weichertdunhill.net)

staging

I received some really great advice regarding staging..Thank you all!! The Florida market seems to be a great resource for staging ..their ideas have a lot of pizzaz in the colors etc. Hope I get to to talk to a few more Realtors who do stageing..I have a property that I referred to a Florida agent and it sounds like they really know what to do ..the property is in Manalapan...here is hoping all goes well.

Back to Deaths in Homes

I was interested as to whether people should put signs on doors telling someone not to enter if there was a death in a room. This would appear to be a red light to me if I were a buyer. Sholuld we tell buyers immediately what this means? I had a room in one home with a sign on it that read "only the Broker could enter this room" it seemed to cause more interest than anything else in the house. I told the people that it was there because of personal items stored. But, what if I did not know why they put the sign up?

Mudheads

Has anyone ever heard of the term "mudheads"? My understanding of it is that it is the nickname of a type of railroad steam locomotive used by the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad. I still don't know why they named this term "mudheads". It sounds like a the river caused mud to stop the railways from running during storms. Is this a good guess or am I getting confused because of the time of night. Lucille

CURIOUSITY

It is amazing how many people at this time of night have responded to my "Death in Homes for Sale". I have not even had one comment in "Life in Homes for Sale". People naturally gravitate to death. I wonder if everyone worries more about dying than living. Boy, what a waste of time for us all. Although we all seem to just love the mysteries more. Lucille
