Tom:
He needs to get that fixed and not write us.

Charlie:

Tom:
Okay, fine, right.

Charlie:

Tom:
Usually bleach will work because it’s usually just a schmutz growing in there as Judge Judy would say.

Charlie:
A really technical home show radio term “Schmutz”!

If not then they might have to if it gets bad enough. It depends how bad it is but don’t ignore it.
