fwiw, i am also now pretty sure that it is the guy upstairs that is smoking, and i'm just appalled by that, and don't know how to react. i can hear him hacking and coughing, as he's smoking.
so, it seems like the fucking low life really did coerce a non-smoker into his basement with a non-smoking lease, with the full intent of smoking in the building, himself.
and, i'm just astounded by it. i'm disgusted by it.
i'm going to focus more on the stuff with the cops for now, and deal with him afterwards.
