We'll I called a family meeting not all could attend so we postponed the meeting. When we get together aftere fall recess we will sit around discuss it and vote on it. After all the yelling and name calling I guess I could get voted down. Then we will have to call another meeting. Mean while I have little Bisphenol's running all over the house.
