I agree with you about the hysteria thing. But you can't just paint
over the mold -- for one thing, the paint won't stick. You need to
remove as much mold as is reasonable, dry everything out (which might
mean opening up the walls and tearing out old insulation and drywall),
and seal the remaining mold with shellac or kilz, or paint with
mildewcide in it.

*Then* keep quiet about it.

This sounds like a sensible proposition. Once dry there is no reason for
the mold to grow back. I think they recommend washing the framing with
peroxide letting it dry out then paint it.
